Summary - Reading, RG1, RG1 RG1 3FZ
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Modern 2-bed apartment with parking and concierge, 0.5 miles from Reading station.
Two double bedrooms with two bathrooms
Bright, modern two-bedroom apartment in the Huntley Wharf development, ideal for first-time buyers seeking a commuter-friendly base. Built in 2022, the flat offers contemporary finishes, two bathrooms and a west-facing balcony that brings afternoon sun into the living space. The property includes secure allocated off-street parking and a concierge service for added convenience.
At 688 sq ft, the layout is a practical traditional plan with two double bedrooms—suitable for sharers or a small family. The building benefits from long leasehold security (999 years from 2021) and fast broadband and mobile coverage, making it ready for remote working and streaming. Its central location is just 0.5 miles from Reading station, putting London and regional connections within easy reach.
Be aware of a few material considerations: the building operates a community heating scheme, which often means communal service charges and centralized heating costs. Crime levels in the immediate area are reported as high, so prospective buyers should view in person to assess personal comfort and security arrangements. Council tax is moderate and there is no flooding risk.
This home suits first-time buyers wanting low-maintenance, modern living with strong transport links and rental potential. It also appeals to investors seeking a recently built apartment in a well-connected, inner-city neighbourhood. Buyers who prioritise quiet streets and low local crime may wish to compare neighbourhood security measures before committing.
