Property Oracle says ..
This one-bedroom apartment located on George Street in Reading, Berkshire, is listed at £145,000. The property’s location offers a significant advantage, being within walking distance of Reading town centre and its railway station, providing convenient access to amenities, employment opportunities, and transportation links such as Reading West station (0.48km) and Reading Station (1.57km). The proximity to several well-regarded schools, including Oxford Road Community School (0.13km) and Civitas Academy (0.56km), further enhances its appeal.
However, the property’s condition presents some concerns. The provided photographs show a dated and somewhat worn interior requiring refurbishment to improve its overall aesthetic appeal and potentially address some maintenance issues. The bathroom in particular requires attention, and the kitchen appears relatively basic. The lack of outdoor space is a notable drawback.
In terms of price, £145,000 places the property within the range of similar one-bedroom apartments in the area, although comparable properties showing better condition or having been recently refurbished may be sold for a higher price. The absence of a garden or dedicated outdoor space might limit the property’s appeal to potential buyers who value this aspect. The property’s size is also a consideration with the limited square footage available. Overall, the property represents a potential investment opportunity for buyers seeking convenient central Reading accommodation who are prepared to undertake renovations and who are less focused on having outdoor space.
Therefore, we give this property 4 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
