A compact one-bedroom first-floor apartment in central Reading, offered with no onward chain and long lease (approx. 104 years). The property is minutes from The Oracle and Reading station, making it convenient for commuters and city living. The open-plan kitchen/lounge benefits from natural light and built-in appliances; the accommodation also includes a bedroom, bathroom and entrance hallway.
Practical positives include no service charge, low council tax (Band A) and permit on-street parking. The apartment is presented for immediate occupation or let, which suits first-time buyers seeking a central starter home or investors targeting steady rental demand near transport and retail.
Buyers should note the apartment is small (approx. 324 sq ft) and located in an area with higher crime rates and wider local deprivation indicators. The building is a Victorian mid-terrace with solid brick walls (likely no cavity insulation) and double glazing fitted before 2002, so further insulation or energy improvements may be desirable. Ground rent is £150 per annum and the tenure is leasehold.
