Property description & features

  • Tenure: Leasehold
  • Stunning retirement apartment
  • Resident court manager


A beautifully presented retirement apartment forming part of an attractive mid-18th century mansion.

This first floor apartment for the over 55s is accessed by a wide and easy flight of stairs, with a stair lift and features high ceilings, large windows with a double aspect to the living room and a triple aspect to the main bedroom.

It was refurbished a few years ago by the current owner and is offered in excellent condition throughout. The kitchen is fully fitted and there is a modern shower room.

There is a resident court manager and communal activities if desired.  A useful information pack provided by the managment company is appended to the end of the brochure which can be downloaded from this website. This includes details of the service charges.

The property is well situated, to the west of Reading town centre, not far from Prospect Park.  There is a Tesco Express on the nearby Bath Road with more extensive facilities at the large Sainsbury's in Calcot.

There are bus services in the area leading into Reading town centre, where there is a main line railway station, or leading out to Calcot.
The nearest motorway is Junction 11 of the M4, about two miles away.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    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
