Summary - JOSEPHINE COURT 16 SOUTHCOTE ROAD READING RG30 2DG
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Commuter-friendly apartment with garage and ready-to-live-in interiors.
Two double bedrooms with a bright, spacious living room view of communal gardens
Step into a well-presented two-bedroom first-floor apartment that suits a first-time buyer seeking a manageable, commuter-friendly home. The living room is bright and comfortably sized, looking out over maintained communal gardens, and the kitchen and modern shower room provide ready-to-live-in convenience.
Practical extras include a garage in the block, residents’ communal drying areas and bin stores, and level walking distance to Reading West train station, bus routes and local shops. Nearby schools and Prospect Park add family-friendly appeal, while good mobile signal and fast broadband support working from home.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold flat with around 117 years remaining, an annual ground rent of £200 and service charges averaging £1,188 per year. Heating is electric with room heaters, and the building has double glazing installed before 2002 and cavity walls assumed without added insulation — both potential areas for future improvement.
Other considerations: the property is described as small overall and the local area records above-average crime, which may influence suitability depending on priorities. For buyers prioritising location, low maintenance living and an included garage, this apartment offers sensible value and immediate occupation potential.
