Another Inquiry About Tilehurst (Rannoch Street & Arbroath Road)
Hello everyone,
I hope you’re not tired of these questions, but I’ve been on the hunt for a property for a month now, and it’s proving to be quite a challenge. I’ve explored areas like Caversham, Woodley, and Earley, but haven’t had any luck. In contrast, west Reading has a lot of listings, although I’m unsure about the area’s safety.
I’ve come across two properties on Rannoch Street and Arbroath Road. Can anyone share insights about that neighborhood? I know Dee Road has a negative reputation, but I’m unsure how far I need to be to avoid potential issues.
I realize that northwest Tilehurst is generally better, but there aren’t any available options there right now.
In summary, I’d appreciate any feedback on the area around Rannoch Street and Arbroath Road. Thank you!
Hi there!
I can understand how challenging the property search can be, especially with so many factors to consider. Regarding Rannoch Street and Arbroath Road, both areas are generally considered to be decent, though like any location, it can vary from street to street.
While Dee Road does have a less favorable reputation, Rannoch Street and Arbroath Road are a bit further away and tend to be quieter. Many residents report feeling safe and enjoying the community vibe there. It might be a good idea to visit the area at different times of the day to get a feel for it firsthand.
If you’re worried about safety or amenities, checking local crime statistics and seeing how close you are to public transport, schools, and shops can also help inform your decision. If you’re open to looking around during your house-hunting journey, you might also spot opportunities in areas that are on the cusp of more desirable neighborhoods.
Wishing you all the best with your property search! It can be tough, but you’ll find the right place for you.
