Description

Seller Insight

We’ve lived here for 31 years now, so it’s fair to say we’ve been happy here! I was looking for a period property in a quiet community, with everything within walking distance, and this house was the perfect fit. I've raised my daughter here and it's been a really easy place to live, with lovely neighbours, plenty of green spaces nearby and a sense of peace and safety.

The house has always felt cosy, with enough room for us to have our own space. My absolute favourite part is the garden. It's private and quiet, we spend as much time out there in the summer as we can. I have a hammock to relax and read in, highly recommend it!

The location has been brilliant, particularly bringing up my daughter. There are great schools nearby, a playground and the green just behind the house, plus Greenham Common is only a few minutes away so we have a lot of recreational space. Sainsbury's is right around the corner and the town centre is an easy walk. You don't need a car here, my daughter could walk to school, see her friends and get into town independently, and I didn't have to be a taxi service too much!

It's been a wonderful home for our family, we’ve got a lot of happy memories here. We’re relocating now and wish the new owners all the happiness and adventures we’ve had here.

Accommodation
The entrance hallway leads to a cosy living room, and on to a generous dining room with an attractive fireplace and double doors opening onto the rear garden. Beyond the dining room is the galley kitchen, and on to a family bathroom fitted with a shower over the bath completing the ground floor accommodation.

Stairs from the dining room lead to the first floor, with three bedrooms. The main bedroom is a spacious double with views over the front. The second bedroom is also a comfortable double, while the third is a single bedroom, ideal as a child's room, nursery or home office.

Outside, the property enjoys a long, private, mature back garden with a patio area immediately behind the house, providing plenty of space for outdoor dining and entertaining. An extensive lawned area stretches towards the rear.

Situated on a quiet, private road close to the town centre, this home presents an excellent opportunity for buyers to create a home of their own. While the house would benefit from modernisation, it offers considerable potential. Improvements such as a new kitchen and bathroom, rewiring, fresh decoration and carpeting could potentially be achieved from around £10,000, depending on the specification and how much of the work is undertaken by the buyer.

With its generous garden, well-proportioned accommodation and scope for improvement, this is a property with excellent potential to add value and create a wonderful family home.

Location
York Road is in a well-established residential area of Newbury, popular with families, professionals and retirees. The neighbourhood has a friendly feel, with a great range of everyday amenities close by. There are several well-regarded schools in the area, and recreational spaces including Stroud Green park and playground, Victoria Park and the Kennet & Avon Canal.

Newbury town centre is within easy walking distance and offers a fantastic mix of independent shops, familiar high street names, cafés, restaurants and bars. The Corn Exchange is at the heart of the town's cultural scene, hosting a regular programme of live music, comedy, theatre, cinema and community events throughout the year. Newbury Racecourse is a few minutes’ walk away, with regular year-round racing and music events.

The surrounding villages offer beautiful countryside walks and highly rated village pubs, giving York Road a wonderful balance of town living with easy access to the countryside.
