A well-presented ground-floor two-bedroom apartment offering practical, accessible living in Caversham. Built in 2005, the flat benefits from a long lease (approx. 130 years remaining), allocated off-street parking, double glazing and a generous living/dining room that gives a feeling of space. Entrance is step-free with a ramp and wide internal doors, making the property suitable for downsizers or buyers needing easier access.
The apartment is economical on space and ready to move into: modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, two double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes, and a separate bathroom with shower. Heating is electric with room heaters, and there is a secure entry system. Service charge and ground rent apply (see figures), and the washing machine space is provided but the appliance is not included.
Transport links are a genuine selling point — Reading mainline station is reachable in around 20 minutes on foot and nearby buses run from a short walk away, providing fast rail services to London. Local shops, amenities and good primary schools are within easy reach, while Caversham’s riverside and leisure options add local appeal.
Buyers should note some material considerations: the property uses electric heating (no central gas), the service charge (£1,863.39pa) and small ground rent (£172.90pa) are payable, and there is a medium flood risk for the area. The wider neighbourhood scores as relatively deprived, which may influence future resale or rental demand. Overall, this is a smart, accessible apartment suited to first-time buyers, downsizers or investors seeking a low-maintenance, well-located flat.
