Three of the most expensive homes bought in Reading in 2002 were on the same street. Figures from the Land Registry show that of the 19 priciest properties in the town were bought on Kidmore Road over the course of the year.
One of these was the second most expensive purchase in the town that year, costing more than £1.5million. The other two properties on the street sold for around £1.65m and £1.55m.
