This ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in Kingsmead House offers practical, move-in ready accommodation with long-term security. The property comes with a 999-year lease and a share of the freehold, meaning no impending lease concerns for buyers. A large living room, fitted kitchen, double glazing and gas central heating provide everyday comfort, while an allocated off-street parking space adds convenience.
Financially straightforward: there is no ground rent, the stated service charge is £150 pcm (approximately £1,800 pa), and council tax is described as cheap. The flat is offered with no onward chain, making a quick completion possible for first-time buyers or investors seeking immediate rental potential.
Location is convenient for road and rail links — J6 of the M4 and Slough town centre are close by — and several well-regarded schools are within reach. However, the property sits in an area with very high recorded crime and higher levels of deprivation; buyers should weigh local community and safety factors and consider viewing at different times of day. The building dates from the early-1990s and appears well maintained, but internal décor features such as dated carpet may invite cosmetic updating.
This apartment suits buyers who prioritise lease security, low initial costs and transport links, or investors looking for a straightforward let. Be realistic about the neighbourhood profile and budget for any desired cosmetic improvements.
