Summary - 28 MOWBRAY DRIVE TILEHURST READING RG30 4XY
2 bed 1 bath Maisonette
Affordable entry close to shops and rail for buyers ready to update.
Two double bedrooms and large living room
Light and practical, this two-bedroom maisonette sits on Mowbray Drive offering an affordable entry into Tilehurst. The layout includes two double bedrooms, a large living room and a private garden — useful outdoor space rare for flats. A garage in a nearby block provides off-street parking and extra storage.
Location is a key strength: Meadway shopping precinct is under 0.5 miles away for everyday shops, while Tilehurst Station is about 1.3–1.5 miles for regular trains into Reading. Good primary and secondary schools are within easy reach, and public transport links serve the town centre. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent.
Buyers should note important practical facts: the lease has about 86 years remaining and ground rent is £75 per year. The seller reports no ongoing maintenance charge at present. The interior shows signs of age with dated decor and worn carpet and will benefit from updating to unlock full value. The property sits in a higher-crime, very deprived area classification, which may affect some buyers’ priorities.
This maisonette is best suited to first-time buyers or investors looking for a budget entry in Tilehurst with scope to improve. It is offered with no onward chain, allowing a quicker move for a buyer prepared to refresh the interiors and manage lease considerations.
