Property Oracle says ..

This property in Castle Hill, Reading, presents a unique opportunity. It’s a Grade II listed townhouse converted into six apartments; two two-bedroom apartments, two one-bedroom apartments, and two studios. The location is undoubtedly a strong selling point; its proximity to Reading town centre, the station, and the River Kennet offers easy access to amenities and transport links. Several highly-rated schools are also within walking distance.

The property’s condition presents a mixed picture. Some apartments appear well-maintained, suggesting recent upgrades; others require modernisation and potential renovation. A comprehensive survey is essential to assess the level of investment needed to bring all apartments to a consistent standard. The size of the apartments is not explicitly stated and therefore the average price per square foot is difficult to determine. However, it appears to be a relatively small property given the list price.

The inclusion of a modest garden provides some additional value, though this isn’t a particularly large plot.

Overall, the property’s desirability stems from its prime location in a sought-after area of Reading. However, potential buyers should factor in the costs of any required renovations and conduct a thorough survey to confirm the value before committing to a purchase. The high number of bedrooms and bathrooms may make it an attractive investment for a potential landlord.

Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
