About
Homeowner's note I originally chose Leighton Court for its practical layout and connections to the university, hospital and Reading town centre.
The quiet position, green outlook and private balcony have always been particularly well received, and I think the apartment offers a really useful amount of space.
Alex's take For me, the second-floor position gives the apartment an added sense of security, while the share of freehold is a huge plus and the garage is super handy for storage or so store a small vehicle.
With No Onward Chain as well, there’s a strong combination here for someone looking for a good all-rounder in this desirable area near Reading.
The accommodation includes a living room with access onto the private balcony, a separate kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom.
The balcony has room for a small table and chairs and looks across the communal gardens.
The apartment also benefits from a share of the freehold, its own garage within a nearby block and No Onward Chain. Please note: The current lease has 108 years remaining.
Now that the freehold has been purchased, it can be extended, subject to legal costs.
