Summary - Flat 24, Icon House, Merchants Place RG1 1EQ
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact 596 sqft city flat with balcony and immediate vacant possession.
Central Reading town-centre location, walking distance to transport and amenities
Located in the heart of Reading's town centre, this compact two-bedroom apartment offers immediate vacant possession and a usable balcony. At 596 sq ft it is suited to buy-to-let or a cost-conscious owner-occupier seeking a central base. The block is modern and the flat benefits from double glazing and an open-plan living area.
This property is being sold by mortgagees in possession and is offered chain free. The layout provides two double bedrooms and a three-piece bathroom alongside a combined lounge/dining/kitchen with balcony, giving straightforward rental appeal to young professionals or students in the area.
Important cautions: this is a leasehold with 79 years remaining — some mortgage lenders may refuse to lend. The location is in a high-crime, deprived inner-city neighbourhood, which can affect tenant demand and insurance costs. Heating is via electric storage heaters and services have not been tested, so buyers should budget for checks or upgrades.
