Compact, convenient home with parking and easy town access.
Canal-side views with Juliet balcony
This first-floor one-bedroom apartment at Greenham Mill offers a compact, low-maintenance home with attractive canal-side views and two allocated parking spaces — a rare combination so close to Newbury town centre. Arranged around an open-plan living space with a Juliet balcony, the flat is ready for immediate occupation and sold with no onward chain, making it well suited to first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors.
Practical running costs and ownership details are straightforward: a 152-year lease remains, annual service charge is £1,338, and council tax is affordable. The building dates from the late 1990s/early 2000s and benefits from double glazing; heating is by electric storage heaters, so check running costs against personal needs.
Positive lifestyle features include canal walks on the doorstep, a level walk to shops and the train station, and communal lawns backing onto the water. Downsides to factor in: the overall floor area is small (approximately 431 sq ft), broadband speeds are reported slow, the area has a higher local crime rate, and there is a medium flood risk. These are important for buyers to consider alongside the competitive price and convenient location.
