Summary - 31 CARSDALE CLOSE READING RG1 6DL
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Ready-to-move-in flat with private garden and garage parking.
One double bedroom maisonette, bright and recently redecorated
A bright, recently redecorated one-bedroom maisonette arranged over the first floor, ideal for a first-time buyer seeking a ready-to-move-in home close to Reading town centre. The property benefits from its own ground-floor entrance, a private rear garden, double glazing throughout and a large ground-floor store room, giving more practical space than many one-bed flats. A fitted kitchen, modern bathroom and a comfortable living room with a central fireplace complete the accommodation.
Practical running costs are favourable: mains gas central heating, an EPC rating of C, a low service charge (£380 pa) and a modest Council Tax band. There is garage parking and loft storage, useful for seasonal items or hobby equipment. Fast broadband and good local amenities make this suitable for commuters and those working from home.
Important facts and drawbacks: the property is leasehold with approximately 100–101 years remaining on the lease, so buyers should factor potential lease length implications into mortgage and resale plans. The accommodation totals about 556 sq ft and is a single-bedroom flat, so space is limited compared with larger homes. Local schools and services are mixed in Ofsted ratings, and crime and area deprivation indicators are average.
Overall this maisonette offers a comfortable, low-maintenance city-base with private outdoor space and storage — a sensible starter home with genuine practical advantages, provided a single-bedroom size and leasehold tenure suit your plans.
