Set on the third floor of a handsome Grade II Georgian conversion, this recently renovated two-bedroom apartment offers a smart, compact home close to Reading town centre and the mainline station. The living space is bright with high ceilings and large windows; finishes are contemporary and the property includes an integrated air filtration system for added comfort.
Practical points suit first-time buyers: the sale is chain-free and the 118-year lease provides long-term security. Residents benefit from a secure allocated parking space at South Street Car Park and a communal bike store. The apartment’s compact footprint (approximately 453 sq ft) makes it low-maintenance yet limits storage and living space compared with larger flats.
Please note the building’s Grade II listing — external alterations and some internal changes may be restricted and could complicate renovation plans. Service charges average around £2,200 pa and there is a £250 pa ground rent, while heating is electric via room heaters (no gas central heating). The local area is lively and well connected, though crime statistics are higher than average for the borough.
This property will appeal to first-time buyers seeking period character with contemporary finishes and easy rail access to London, or investors looking for a city-centre rental close to universities and hospitals. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the high ceilings, light and location at close range.
