Light-filled, low-maintenance two-bedroom apartment ideal for buyers wanting outdoor space.
Penthouse with wrap-around decked terrace and river views
This penthouse two-bedroom apartment sits on the top floor with a wrap-around decked terrace and direct views over the River Kennet. Floor-to-ceiling windows fill the open-plan living space with light, and a modern kitchen with integrated appliances makes daily living straightforward. Two allocated off-street parking spaces and lift access in a gated development add practical convenience.
The interior is finished to a high specification and feels contemporary throughout, making it easy to move into with minimal immediate work. The apartment has one bathroom and electric underfloor heating; buyers should note heating runs on electricity, which may cost more than gas alternatives depending on tariffs.
This is a leasehold property with 118 years remaining from the 2018 term — plenty of term for most buyers, but leasehold ownership and associated costs should be reviewed. Broadband speed in the area is reported as very slow, which could affect home working and streaming unless upgraded by the provider. The building is in an affluent area with good local schools nearby and a train station about 0.7 miles away, offering sensible commuter access.
Overall this is a compact, modern penthouse suited to first-time buyers or couples seeking a low-maintenance riverside home with outdoor terrace space and secure parking. Be aware of the leasehold tenure, potential heating costs, and current broadband limitations before committing.
