Two double bedrooms, an ensuite to the master and a spacious lounge/diner that opens onto a balcony provide comfortable everyday living. The apartment comes with an allocated underground parking space, visitor bays and access to attractive communal gardens.
The building is modern (built 2003–2006) with secure entry, lift access and double glazing. Local amenities, good primary schools and frequent public transport links are all within easy reach, while Reading town centre and the mainline railway are a short journey away. Broadband and mobile signal are strong and the neighbourhood records very low crime levels.
Practical points to note: this is a leasehold property (approximately 134 years remaining) with an annual service charge of around £1,212 and ground rent of £230. Heating is via electric storage heaters, and there is a medium flood risk for the area — both factors to consider for running costs and insurance. The sale is chain-free and furniture can be included by separate agreement, which may suit buyers wanting a quick, move-in-ready option.
Overall, the apartment balances low-maintenance living, commuter convenience and rental potential. It will suit first-time buyers seeking a ready-made home close to schools and transport, or investors looking for a desirable, low-crime location with parking and communal green space.
