Two-bedroom first-floor flat with parking and communal garden, minutes from station and park.
Private entrance and first-floor maisonette layout
This bright two-bedroom first-floor maisonette sits in a quiet cul-de-sac a short walk from Newbury town centre, shops and the railway station. It benefits from its own private entrance, off-street parking and a communal lawned garden, making it an easy, low-hassle home for a first purchase or a straightforward rental. A virtual tour is available to view the layout and light levels before visiting.
Accommodation includes an open-plan living/dining space, separate kitchen, two double bedrooms and a modern shower room. The property has a long lease (987 years remaining) and a below-average annual service charge of £880.36. The energy rating is D and heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be less economical than gas alternatives.
The location is a key draw: immediate access to Northcroft Park, short walks to town amenities and a direct rail link to London Paddington. The flat’s mid-1970s build and double glazing give basic insulation and a sound, conventional layout; minor cosmetic updating would personalise the interior and could increase rental appeal.
Notable considerations are the leasehold tenure, reliance on electric heating, single bathroom and first-floor access (stairs only). These factors should be weighed against the exceptionally long lease, parking provision and central-but-quiet setting when deciding whether to view.
