Summary - 42 FLAT 1 NEW STREET HENLEY-ON-THAMES RG9 2BT
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Chain-free town centre apartment ideal for commuter investors or professional sharers.
Grade II listed apartment with Tudor exposed timbers
This first-floor Grade II listed apartment blends historic Tudor character with practical living in Henley-on-Thames town centre. Exposed timbers and period detailing give the sitting room strong rental and resale appeal, while the fitted kitchen and two double bedrooms suit long-term tenants or professionals seeking a stylish riverside base. EPC rating C and mains gas central heating offer reasonable running costs for an older building.
Positioned moments from shops, restaurants and the Thames, the property benefits from excellent transport links to Reading and London Paddington, making it attractive to commuters and short-let visitors. At about 888 sq ft, the layout provides comfortable living space for couples or sharers; the long lease (about 145 years remaining) removes immediate lease-extension pressure.
Buyers should note material considerations: the Grade II listing restricts alterations and may complicate maintenance or refurbishment. The building’s solid brick construction likely lacks modern cavity insulation, so thermal improvements are restricted and may be costly. There is a medium flood risk for the area and recorded local high crime levels, both relevant for lettings and insurance.
Practical costs include an annual service charge (approx. £1,651) and a small ground rent (£45 rising to £70 in 2040). Overall, this is a character-rich, chain-free investment with strong location credentials but some statutory and environmental constraints that buyers must factor into refurbishment or rental plans.
