Summary -
Flat 208 Montagu House,Padworth Avenue,READING,RG2 0PY
RG2 0PY
2 bed 2 bath Flat
Low-maintenance flat with parking and excellent commuter links.
Two double bedrooms, main with built-in storage and ensuite
Comfortable, modern two-bedroom apartment on the edge of central Reading, arranged as open-plan living with a private balcony. The kitchen is contemporary and fitted with integrated appliances; the main bedroom includes built-in storage and an ensuite. Allocated underground parking and visitor spaces add practical convenience for commuters and small families.
The lease is exceptionally long (circa 980 years), offering long-term security for buyers. Ongoing costs include an annual service charge around £1,600 and ground rent of £900 per year; both are reviewed yearly and should be factored into affordability calculations. Council tax is described as affordable.
Practical drawbacks are stated plainly: the property is in a postcode with a higher crime level, and the wider area shows signs of deprivation. Those concerns may matter to some buyers and should be weighed against the apartment’s transport links and proximity to Reading town centre, Green Park and the M4. Overall this is a sensible choice for a first-time buyer or investor seeking low-maintenance, modern accommodation with easy commuting access.
