Reading has undergone a massive transformation in the last 25 years to become a cosmopolitan, vibrant place to live combining classic Victorian and Edwardian architecture on the outskirts of the town centre with interesting urban regeneration providing a number of landmark contemporary apartment developments. The improvements have included the building of the Oracle centre which as well as boasting a high number of premier retail outlets includes a cinema village and wide range of dining experiences.

The town has always enjoyed excellent business links the area we cover to the east of Reading is the ideal location for quick access to the M4 corridor containing more top IT companies with corporate head offices near here and throughout the Thames Valley. Commuter links include Reading Station giving direct access to London Paddington (22 minutes and circa 80 trains a day), Heathrow Airport, Bristol and the West Country. The area includes a motorway junction connecting to the M3 giving access to Surrey and the South Coast.

As well as boasting a large University and array of excellent private and grammar schools the town has enjoyed a cultural resurgence with a number of major summer events including Reading Rock Festival and WOMAD. The Hexagon Theatre in Reading plays host to a wide variety of productions and is well supported by a number of smaller theatres on the outskirts of town.

Part of the regeneration of Reading has seen the recent construction of the Madjeski Stadium, home to Reading Football Club and the London Irish Rugby Team. As well as a number of local authority leisure centres within the surrounding areas most of which have swimming pools, there are a number of exclusive private health clubs and spas in the local area. There are various large parks and other sports facilities including two sailing and water sports clubs and the town also stages a high quality Half Marathon.
