Exclusive over-55s home near Reading town centre with communal gardens and parking.
Top-floor two-bedroom retirement apartment (over 55s exclusive)
A compact two-bedroom top-floor retirement apartment set within a handsome Victorian building, offered with no onward chain. The flat benefits from a recently refitted shower room, double glazing and electric heating, and sits above well-kept communal gardens with on-site residents’ parking.
The property is best suited to over-55s seeking easy access to Reading town centre, The Oracle and Reading station; frequent local buses run nearby. The living area is a generous lounge-diner with high ceilings and good natural light; the kitchen is compact but practical.
Practical points to note: the home is leasehold with 87 years remaining and uses electric room heaters rather than a central heating system. The building is solid-brick Victorian construction with assumed no wall insulation, and the overall internal size is small at around 558 sq ft. Crime levels in the area are above average.
Overall this is a convenient, low-maintenance retirement option with communal outside space and parking — a sensible choice for buyers prioritising location and affordability over substantial internal space or modern central heating.
