Summary - 27 STRATHEDEN PLACE READING RG1 7BH
2 bed 1 bath Block of Apartments
Secure gated parking and quick access to station — ideal entry-level purchase or buy-to-let.
Chain-free two-bedroom apartment, approximately 593 sq ft
A practical two-bedroom apartment in central Reading, offered chain-free and ready for immediate occupation or letting. The flat sits within a modern block (c.1991–95), extends to around 593 sq ft and includes secure gated parking — a rare convenience so close to Reading town centre and the mainline station. The property has a small garden and double glazing.
This apartment suits first-time buyers seeking an affordable entry into the RG1 market or investors looking for a straightforward rental opportunity. The layout and modern kitchen appliances reduce initial refurbishment needs, while the property’s proximity to shops, leisure facilities and good local schools increases long-term rental appeal.
Important considerations: the home is leasehold with 88 years remaining from the original 125-year term, heated by electric storage heaters, and broadband speeds are slow. The local area records higher crime and above-average deprivation scores, which can affect desirability and rental yield. Buyers should check service charges, ground rent and commission a heating and electrical inspection before committing.
