A well-located two-double-bedroom ground-floor flat with direct access to a south-facing communal garden, offered chain-free. The layout is light and airy with UPVC double glazing, allocated off-street parking and easy walking distance to Newbury town centre, Victoria Park and the mainline rail station.
Practical strengths include a very long lease (960 years), modest service charge and low ground rent, making this an affordable long-term purchase for a first-time buyer or investor. The property’s footprint is compact at about 552 sq ft, so it works best for buyers seeking low-maintenance living close to transport links and local amenities.
The kitchen and some internal finishes are dated and would benefit from modernisation; heating is electric which can be more costly than gas. Crime levels in the area are reported as high—buyers should consider security measures and local checks. Overall this is a sensible, well-situated starter home with scope to increase value through modest updating.
