This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment located at 2 Oscar Wilde Road, Reading, RG1 3FA, is offered for sale at £295,000. The property is part of a modern development situated on the outskirts of Reading town centre, providing convenient access to shops, restaurants and the River Kennet. Reading train station is within walking distance or a short commute, which is appealing to commuters. The apartment itself appears well-maintained and features a modern interior, including a contemporary kitchen and bathrooms. The photos show a clean and tidy space. However, a significant drawback is the lack of any substantial private outdoor space; the property is an apartment with no garden or significant plot size. The price of £295,000 requires further investigation regarding value for money, particularly given that comparable apartments in the area have been listed at lower prices. A detailed comparison of the square footage against similar properties’ prices would yield a more definite conclusion on the price’s reasonability. Overall, the property presents a modern, convenient city-centre apartment lifestyle but prospective buyers should carefully evaluate the price relative to other similar properties in the Reading market, and fully factor in the absence of outdoor space.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
