Quiet, Bright & Chain-Free


Set at the rear of Downham Court with a peaceful green outlook, this two-bedroom first-floor flat offers practicality, space, and convenience in a well-connected location. Some upgrades are required, but it’s a great opportunity to put your own stamp on a property with solid fundamentals.


The layout is bright and functional, with large windows throughout and plenty of natural light. There’s ample storage across the flat, and the property is double glazed with electric-only ceiling heating. Please Note: 137 years remaining on the lease (NOT 150+, STATED IN THE VIDEO) and a combined service charge and ground rent of just £100 per month, it represents good value.


This is a chain-free sale with a buyer’s pack already prepared, including all searches ordered up front. That means a smoother, faster process for anyone ready to proceed.


Downham Court sits off Shinfield Road, just a short walk from local amenities including Costa, Tesco, Greggs, Subway, and various takeaways. There’s residents’ parking to the rear, and the Leopard 3 bus provides straightforward access into Reading town centre.


We look forward to showing you around.

As a family-run estate agency on the border of Earley and Reading, we pride ourselves on our reputation for delivering a friendly, personal, and proactive service. Our clients trust us – and that trust has built long-lasting relationships across the community. Led by Martyn and Alex Russell, the business combines over 50 years of experience with a modern, forward-thinking approach. Martyn brings deep-rooted expertise, while Alex drives innovation and growth, both on the ground and behind the scenes. They’re supported by a passionate and dedicated team: Olivia, Caroline, Sandra, Roxanne and Dawn – who leads our Lettings department. With over 13 years at the company and more than 35 years of combined experience across the lettings team, Dawn and her colleagues provide a reliable, knowledgeable, and results-driven service for both landlords and tenants. We love helping people find their next chapter – whether it's buying their first home, selling a much-loved one, or growing a rental portfolio. We’ve supported countless families and investors across Reading, Earley, Woodley and the surrounding areas. The joy of handing over keys and knowing we’ve made a difference never gets old. When it comes to lettings and property management, we’re all about clarity, efficiency, and keeping both landlords and tenants informed. You’ll always know what’s happening – and you’ll never be left chasing. We’re also committed to outstanding marketing. Every property we list – regardless of price – receives an agent-led video tour, including drone photography, as standard. It’s not just about showing homes – it’s about showcasing them at their best. Combined with major property portals and targeted social media campaigns, this helps us reach more buyers and create more buzz. If you're looking to sell, let, or invest in the local area, come and chat with us. Whether it's over the phone, via Zoom, or face-to-face in the office – we’re here to help. Pop in for a cuppa, book a valuation, or just get some honest advice. No hard sell. Just genuine support from people who know the market – and care about your move.
