3 bedroom maisonette
Key information
Property description & features
- Landlords & Investors only
- Approx. 175 year lease
- Close to Station
- About 1 mile from University
A self-contained, two-storey maisonette, above the Co-op convenience store, on the corner of Wokingham Road and Meadow Road. The location is ideal for access to Earley Railway Station, with Reading University only about one mile away.
The property is currently let and has been for several years and would, in our opinion, make a superb, continued investment. The property does require some updating. The seller had the property redecorated and replaced the carpets on the first floor last year and will soon be installing a new gas boiler, but other works are necessary, and we would suggest that a new landlord would want to update the kitchen and bathrooms, possibly among other improvements.
We are advised that the current tenancy ends December 2023 but that there is a break clause allowing the tenancy to be terminated from June onwards. The current rent is £1200pcm. We await a copy of the existing tenancy agreement to verify this. It is the selling agents opinion that a higher rent should be achievable.
As well as good public transport links, the property is set between the thriving town of Reading and the market town of Wokingham and is not far from Junction 10, where London then lies about 40 miles away and Heathrow Airport about 28 miles away.

Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on August 2, 2022
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on August 12, 2022 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
