50% shared ownership — advertised price £110,000 (full value £220,000)
A bright top-floor two-bedroom flat offered as a 50% shared ownership in a modern 2007–2011 development. The apartment extends to about 684 sqft and benefits from a semi-open-plan reception with a balcony that overlooks the communal garden — good for morning light and quiet outdoor space. Both bedrooms are double-sized and the bathroom has been upgraded with marble-style panelling and an overhead shower. Double glazing, insulated timber-frame construction and gas central heating combine for solid energy performance. The flat includes one off-street parking space and sits within easy reach of Newbury town centre, local shops and public transport.
Shared ownership makes this a lower-cost route onto the ladder: the advertised price represents a 50% share (minimum share), with the housing association rent (£382.27 pcm) and a service charge (approx. £180.44 pcm). Guideline minimum incomes and a minimum deposit are required for eligibility; interested buyers must complete the shared ownership application. The lease has about 108 years remaining.
Practical points to note: service charges and rent will be subject to annual review and pets are not permitted (except assistance animals). Crime levels in the area are reported as above average; applicants seeking complete seclusion or maximum privacy should view and judge location details in person. Priority is given to those living or working in the local authority. Overall, this is a sensible entry-level option for buyers who qualify for shared ownership and want a modern, low-maintenance home near Newbury town centre, with scope to buy a larger share later.
