Compact central flat with parking and commuter convenience.
Chain free one-bedroom flat with long lease (957 years)
A well-placed one-bedroom flat in a Georgian end-terrace, offered chain-free and with an unusually long lease (957 years). The apartment sits within a conservation area a short walk from Reading town centre and the mainline station, making it a practical pick for first-time buyers and buy-to-let investors seeking central convenience and commuter appeal. Allocated off-street parking is a notable advantage in this urban setting.
Internally the flat is compact (approximately 440 sq ft) with high ceilings and sash windows that retain period character. A modern kitchen and usable living space make the property move-in ready for many buyers; the layout includes a living room, kitchen, bedroom, bathroom and separate WC. Annual outgoings are straightforward: service charge c.£996 and ground rent £10, with Council Tax Band B.
Buyers should be aware of a few material points: the building is solid brick and likely lacks cavity insulation, and heating is by electric storage heaters which can be more costly than gas alternatives. Crime in the immediate area is reported as above average. These factors affect running costs and may prompt further investment in energy improvements or security measures.
Overall this flat offers low-entry ownership in a desirable central location with long lease terms and parking — a sensible option for first-time purchasers or investors willing to accept the property's compact size and make targeted improvements to reduce energy costs or enhance security.
