A compact, chain-free one-bedroom flat in central Reading, offered with allocated parking and communal gardens. The 415 sqft apartment sits in a Victorian end-terrace close to Reading town centre and the mainline station, making it an easy commute or rental proposition. The long lease (approximately 959 years remaining) and low council tax band reduce running costs.
Internally the layout is traditional: lounge/diner, kitchen and bathroom. The building has solid brick walls (no insulation assumed) and standard ceiling heights, so modest energy performance and some updating may be needed. Service charges are substantial at about £2,401.32 per year and should be factored into affordability calculations.
This property will suit first-time buyers seeking central location and immediate availability, and investors looking for a straightforward, lettable city-centre unit. Be aware of the local context: the area is classified as inner-city with higher crime and deprivation indicators, so buyers should consider security and management costs. Viewing is recommended to assess space and any modernisation required.
