Description

Quiet, Bright & Chain-Free

Set at the rear of Downham Court with a peaceful green outlook, this two-bedroom first-floor flat offers practicality, space, and convenience in a well-connected location. Some upgrades are required, but it’s a great opportunity to put your own stamp on a property with solid fundamentals.

The layout is bright and functional, with large windows throughout and plenty of natural light. There’s ample storage across the flat, and the property is double glazed with electric-only ceiling heating. Please Note: 137 years remaining on the lease (NOT 150+, STATED IN THE VIDEO) and a combined service charge and ground rent of just £100 per month, it represents good value.

This is a chain-free sale with a buyer’s pack already prepared, including all searches ordered up front. That means a smoother, faster process for anyone ready to proceed.

Downham Court sits off Shinfield Road, just a short walk from local amenities including Costa, Tesco, Greggs, Subway, and various takeaways. There’s residents’ parking to the rear, and the Leopard 3 bus provides straightforward access into Reading town centre.

We look forward to showing you around.
