Sellers Comments-
"As soon as I saw my flat on Mason Street it felt like a sparkling gem lined up against the other places i'd viewed. The flat had the right layout and feel to make it my own cosy haven; my first taste of independence away from my family.
I worked next to the station and i'd ride my bike in. Safe to say commuting through those back roads every day was a breeze! After work and on weekends, Reading town was my oyster. The flat is central enough to access shops, bars, anything in town, as well as picking up groceries on the Oxford Road and taking the train from Reading Main. But it's still tucked away in a quiet residential area - perfect for lazy Sundays or having guests round.
I moved out at the start of the pandemic as I didn't want to live alone while isolating, and as my circumstances changed I later decided to rent out my flat. I never had a problem finding new tenants, and I felt proud to let others create their own living space there. The flat is perfect for a single person or a couple looking to put down roots in a classic Reading Victorian terraced house."

The open-plan layout creates a bright, comfortable living space, making it an ideal first home for buyers with a restricted budget or a low-risk investment opportunity for landlords seeking a strong rental location.
With its turn-key finish, modern touches and easy access to central Reading, this apartment offers a superb balance of convenience and comfort.
