Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom flat in Central Reading, Berkshire, is situated in the Minster locality, offering convenient access to Reading town centre, its amenities, and transport links such as Reading West and Reading train stations. The property itself, while structurally sound, appears to require some modernisation and improvements. The kitchen and bathroom are notably dated and could benefit from a refurbishment. The interior photographs depict a certain lack of cleanliness, suggesting a possible need for a thorough clean before occupation. The flat benefits from communal parking, but lacks a private garden. The property’s location is a key advantage, offering convenient access to shops, restaurants, and transport. However, the condition of the property requires considerable attention. The provided listing price of £190,000 appears relatively reasonable considering the location but should be compared to more specific property transactions to determine if it represents exceptional value. The limited plot size is a significant drawback for those seeking outdoor space. Overall, the property presents an opportunity for investment or first-time buyers willing to undertake some updating and refurbishment.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
