Minutes from Reading station; low-maintenance urban home for professionals.
Third-floor, dual-aspect 1-bedroom flat with separate kitchen
A compact, dual-aspect 1-bedroom flat on the third floor of a well-kept brick development. At about 463 sq ft the layout offers a separate kitchen and a bright living/dining room suitable for everyday living and entertaining.
The building includes communal landscaped grounds and off-street residential parking, and the location is convenient — roughly 1.7 km from Reading town centre and the mainline station, with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband. This makes the property practical for commuters or buyers wanting low-maintenance urban living.
Important practical points: the home is leasehold with around 90 years remaining, an average annual service charge of £2,400 and a ground rent of £90. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than a communal gas system, which may affect running costs and comfort for some buyers.
Overall this is a straightforward, manageable apartment suited to first-time buyers or investors seeking a city-centre rental, but budget for service charges, potential heating upgrades and the limited lease length when considering long-term plans.
