This property is a one bedroom penthouse apartment located on Forbury Road in Reading. The apartment is modern and well-presented, with a contemporary kitchen and bathroom. It benefits from a large private balcony offering views over the River Kennet and the town. The location is excellent, within walking distance of Reading town centre and its amenities, including shops, restaurants, and train station. There are also several schools nearby. The list price of £200,000 is significantly below the average price for properties in the area, which is £340,786. However, it is important to note that the average property size is 896 sqft, while this apartment is only 544.12 sqft. While the price per sqft is lower than the average, the smaller size of the property may still make it a reasonable price.
