Private recently landscaped rear garden with patio and decking
On‑street parking only; no private driveway
Long lease (approx. 931 years) and no service charge

EPC D — consider energy efficiency improvements
Small overall size; best for couples, small families, or investors
Set on the ground floor of a post‑war semi, this two‑bed maisonette offers a compact, well‑kept home ideal for a first purchase or buy‑to‑let. The sitting room benefits from a bay window and good natural light; the modern galley kitchen and recently upgraded bathroom give move‑in convenience without major works. A private, recently landscaped rear garden with patio and decking extends the living space outdoors.
Practical running costs are straightforward: double glazing, gas central heating and a very long lease (effectively 931 years remaining). There is no service charge, but the lease carries a small ground rent currently £200 per year, scheduled increases are detailed in the lease and will apply from 2028 onwards.
This property is small (approximately 414 sq ft) and best suited to a couple or small family seeking an affordable entry into Caversham or an investor looking for a low‑maintenance let. On‑street parking only and an EPC rating of D are the main compromises to factor into running costs and saleability.
Location is a strong selling point: elevated position with pleasant views, quick access to local shops, regular bus services and nearby open countryside. Good local schools and very low crime levels make this an attractive, practical option for first‑time buyers wanting a compact home in an affluent suburb.
