Set in the heart of Newbury with no onward chain, this one-bedroom first-floor apartment offers an affordable entry point in a central location. The long lease (990 years) removes common leasehold concerns, making the purchase straightforward for buyers prepared to refurbish.
The flat has a conventional layout with an open-plan living and dining area, separate kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom. Windows overlook maintained communal lawns; rooms are compact but practical for single occupants or couples. Gas central heating and double glazing are already in place.
The property requires full internal updating: kitchen and finishes are dated or stripped back and the apartment is presented as a fixer-upper. Broadband speeds are slow and the immediate area records higher crime levels, so buyers should factor in security and connectivity upgrades. Council tax is low and flood risk is minimal.
This apartment suits first-time buyers or investors aiming to add value through renovation in a town-centre setting. Its central position places shops, cafés, schools and transport within easy reach, making it convenient for rental or owner-occupation once updated.
