This well-presented one-bedroom apartment on Bath Road offers a practical, chain-free entry to Reading’s property market. Situated on an upper floor with lift access, the flat provides open-plan living, a modern compact kitchen and a private balcony overlooking communal landscaped grounds — ideal for a first-time buyer or commuter seeking low-maintenance city living.
Practical benefits include an allocated parking space plus a private garage, long lease (circa 975 years), and easy access to Reading town centre, mainline stations and local green space. The accommodation (approximately 515 sq ft) feels light and airy, with double glazing and contemporary finishes throughout, so it’s ready to occupy without major immediate works.
Buyers should note a service charge of about £2,800 per annum and that there is no central heating system listed (electric heaters assumed). The block was built in the late 1960s/early 1970s and cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so longer-term buyers may wish to consider insulation or heating upgrades to improve energy efficiency and running costs.
Overall this flat represents an accessible, well-located home with good commuter links and strong local amenities. Its long lease and garage/parking make it a practical purchase, while modest updating to heating and insulation would add comfort and potential value.
