3 Beech Lane, Earley, Reading, RG6 5PT

3 Beech Lane is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Earley, Reading, Reading (RG6 5PT). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. Period features are noted in the property record. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility.

The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
