Our tenants have also had a happy 6 years living in this home, with their young family. As a young couple, this was the perfect location for us. We made regular use of the convenience shop/grocers shop at the end of the road. The transport links are perfect, with a bus stop at the end of the road giving a direct 10 minute link to town and you’re only a short walk to train stations at Reading West or 5 minutes drive to Tilehurst station. A ten minute walk away is Prospect Park, the largest green space in Reading, was fantastic when we got our first dog. Prospect Park has a huge brand new, kids play area, mini golf, lovely café, climbing wall, tennis courts, football pitches, and hosts a Park Run every weekend. A great space to go for a sense of calm, but also a hive of physical activity if you want it. We also loved that Shaftesbury Road is a permit free street for parking and is in close proximity to three major supermarkets, Asda, Tesco and Waitrose. The garden has been a highlight for us; a generous size and gets plenty of sun. We were thrilled to expose the original brick footpath, previously hidden under concrete. We have enjoyed hosting many BBQ's, as well as relaxing in the sun on the decking after work. The ground floor extension was something we added, including the double shower with rainfall head. The added full length larder and utility was a huge benefit too. We also divided the enormous upstairs bathroom, to create a separate dressing room/office/nursery space. We used this as a dressing room which removed the need for wardrobes in the bedroom and felt like a real luxury space! With the size of the space, we were able to retain the existing bath and add a shower, which was a real benefit to be able to have two showers and bathrooms in the early morning rush to get to work! We will be sad to say goodbye to our very first house where we have lived happily for so long, and spent so much time lovingly extending and renovating. But we have no doubt the next owners will love it as much as we have."
