Sellers view:
"The flat is in a good location overlooking the park with good connections to bus services/local shops. It also has its own secure gated parking and a lift within the building if required.

Although you are living independently, the manager of the building lives on site, she is so helpful and approachable if needed. You don’t feel you are entirely on your own if you need help with anything.

It’s a lovely place to live and highly regarded by the residents who are very happy there."


Kiel's View:
"A McCarthy Stone development of 43 independent apartments constructed circa 2006 with resident management staff and Caroline alarm service in addition to lift, communal grounds, parking and wonderful views over Cintra Park!

The home was previously tenanted and for an investor it would be ideal as rentals are very common here. Current rental figure is £800-£850pcm.

With lift access, communal grounds and ease of access into Reading as well as a Post Office within 0.75 miles and guest facilities, this could be an ideal home in Reading for someone over 60 looking to downsize and take the next step.

Regular Social activities include: coffee morning, fish & chip supper, and birthday teas. New residents accepted from 60 years of age. Both cats & dogs generally accepted (subject to terms of lease and landlord permission)."

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

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
