Set within the popular Watermill Court retirement development in Woolhampton, this freehold two-bedroom terraced home offers comfortable, low-maintenance living with communal gardens and off-street parking. The sitting/dining room opens to a conservatory, providing extra light and usable space ideal for relaxed mornings or visiting family. Both upstairs bedrooms are doubles with built-in wardrobes, and the layout follows a traditional, easy-to-manage plan.
Practical transport links include nearby Midgham station with services to Reading and London Paddington, regular buses, and quick access to M4 Junction 12. The property benefits from an active onsite community organising social outings and local lunches — a genuine advantage for buyers seeking companionship and convenience.
Buyers should note this home is being sold by online auction with a non-refundable Buyer’s Premium of £6,600 (including VAT) and a Legal Pack fee of £396 (including VAT). The sale allows 56 working days to exchange and complete after draft contract receipt, enabling standard residential finance. There is a high flood risk for the area; purchasers must check the Legal Pack and carry out their own due diligence. Some interior staining and signs of wear indicate light renovation or redecoration may be needed.
Overall, the house suits retirees looking for village life with transport links and community amenities, or buyers seeking a manageable property with potential to refresh. The combination of conservatory, communal grounds and private car port adds practical appeal, while auction conditions and flood risk are key considerations before bidding.
