OVERVIEW
Impeccably presented first floor maisonette. Situated in a quiet, leafy corner of the ever-popular cul-de-sac The Willows, benefiting from no passing traffic or pedestrians. This light-filled, peaceful property has been extensively renovated by its current owner:- replastered throughout, new internal doors and carpets, kitchen reconfigured and new high-end kitchen units installed, original boiler cupboard removed from bedroom, and new boiler installed in the attic. Property benefits from availability of FTTP internet infrastructure, for home-workers. Surrounded by mature trees, the maisonette is conveniently located - under a 5 minute walk to Caversham's shops and amenities, and only a short walk to Reading Railway station (10-15min). The property would be an ideal choice for first-time buyers / as a London "commuter pad" / investment property (current owner has successfully let the property, achieving over ?1100pcm). Gas radiator central heating. 147 years remaining on lease. Annual ground rent (app. ?80), no annual service charges, peppercorn charges only. Viewing is highly recommended, no chain.
