- 685 ft² total area; efficient but modest in size

- Secure telecom entry and well-kept communal gardens

Set over two floors, this 2-bedroom duplex sits on the outskirts of Reading town centre, a short walk from The Oracle and the mainline station. The layout places a generously sized principal bedroom with walk-in storage on the upper level and living space, kitchen and bathroom on the lower level — a straightforward plan that appeals to first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors.
Practical strengths include off-street resident and visitor parking, secure telecom entry and communal lawned grounds. The kitchen and bathroom are modern and the property benefits from recent double glazing and a very long lease (circa 949 years). There is no onward chain, which simplifies a quick sale or rental start.
Notable considerations: heating is by electric storage heaters and the EPC currently sits at D, which may affect running costs and future upgrade work. A service charge of approximately £1,000 is payable (details unknown) and the apartment’s 685 ft² footprint is modest compared with larger family homes. Accessibility is limited by steps at the elevated entrance and the duplex layout.
Overall this apartment offers easy access to Reading’s transport links and amenities, clear rental appeal and immediate occupancy potential. Buyers seeking lower-maintenance central living or a straightforward investment will find genuine value, provided they accept the electric heating and communal service costs.
