A modern fifth-floor apartment close to Reading town centre, offering practical city living with private outdoor space and allocated undercroft parking. Built in 2009, the block includes a residents’ lift and landscaped communal courtyard, while the flat itself features an open-plan living/kitchen, private balcony and two double bedrooms (master with en-suite).
This home suits first-time buyers or investors seeking a well-presented, low-maintenance city base. The 231-year lease gives long-term security, and the flat is offered with no onward chain for a straightforward move or letting process. Its proximity to The Oracle, mainline station and local amenities makes commuting and city-life convenient.
Buyers should note material running costs and local context: an average annual service charge of £3,200 and ground rent of £350; the wider area is an inner-city, multicultural neighbourhood with relatively high crime statistics and some local deprivation. The apartment is leasehold and situated in a busy town-centre setting, so those seeking quiet, suburban living or large private gardens may prefer elsewhere.
Overall, this is a practical, modern apartment that delivers town-centre convenience, secure parking and communal green space — good for first-time purchasers wanting low-maintenance ownership or investors targeting central Reading tenants.
