Set on the top floor of a well-kept 1970s development, this chain-free one-bedroom apartment offers a bright, move-in-ready home for a first-time buyer or investor. Large windows to the east, south and west flood the living space with daylight; the living/dining room, separate kitchen and generous bedroom provide practical, well-proportioned rooms for everyday life.
Practical benefits include a garage in a rear block, communal garden, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. Transport is straightforward: a 10-minute walk to local train links and frequent bus routes a two-minute walk away give easy access into Reading and to Reading main station. The property has double glazing installed post-2002 and a 109-year lease remaining.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: the property is leasehold with an approximate service charge of £1,000 (details unknown) and an annual ground rent of £250. Main heating is by electric storage heaters rather than gas, and local crime levels are above average. These points affect running costs and may influence mortgage or insurance assessments.
Overall this apartment suits someone seeking a low-hassle, centrally located first home or a buy-to-let opportunity with immediate rental potential. The accommodation is in very good decorative order, meaning a purchaser can move in straightaway or make modest changes to personalise the space.
