Period features and ultrafast broadband close to stations; ideal for single occupants or couples.
Share of freehold; 112 years remaining on lease
Set on the first floor of an attractive Edwardian terrace, this one-bedroom flat blends period character with practical city-centre convenience. The living room stretches to 14'7" and the apartment retains original sash windows and a feature fireplace, giving genuine period appeal and good natural light. Fast ultrafast broadband (FTTP) and excellent mobile signal suit home working or streaming.
The conversion is offered as a share of freehold with 112 years remaining on the lease and no service charge or ground rent shown. The layout — separate living room, fitted kitchen and double bedroom — suits a single occupant or couple looking for a compact, low-maintenance central base close to Reading West and the mainline station.
Buyers should note practical drawbacks: heating is electric via room heaters (no gas central heating), walls are solid brick with assumed no insulation, and there is no lift. On-street parking operates by permit with charges from the council. The neighbourhood records higher crime and area deprivation indices, which may affect resale or rental demand.
Overall this property offers affordable entry into West Reading with strong transport links, period features and modern broadband, but expect modest running costs for heating and potential upgrade work to insulation and heating if desired.
