Summary - 81 TIPPETT RISE READING RG2 0DJ
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact city-centre studio, ideal for single buyers or buy-to-let purchasers.
Top-floor studio with separate shower room and modern kitchenette
A compact, top-floor studio in central Reading, offered with a long lease and no chain. The apartment is presented in good decorative order and benefits from a modern fitted kitchenette, separate shower room and double glazing. Its 418 sq ft footprint is efficient but modest — ideal for a single buyer or a buy-to-let investor seeking central location and low immediate maintenance.
The property sits about 0.6 miles from The Oracle shopping centre and close to good local schools, public transport and neighbourhood amenities. Residents’ off-street parking and small communal landscaped grounds add convenience in a built-up area. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are strong, supporting home working or streaming.
Practical points to note: heating is by electric room heaters only, so running costs can be higher than gas-heated homes. The service charge averages £1,250 annually and the tenure is leasehold with 989 years remaining. The building dates from the 1980s, with timber-frame elements and double glazing installed before 2002. The wider area scores as an urban cultural mix with pockets of deprivation, though local crime levels are low and there is no flooding risk.
