We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
**NO ONWARD CHAIN COMPLICATIONS** A stone’s throw from Reading town centre and the mainline railway station, this very well presented first floor apartment was built by Bellway Homes in 2015.
Ideal for first time buyers and investment buyers alike, the accommodation briefly comprises: entrance hall with storage, a modern three piece family bathroom and two double bedrooms, including an impressive dual aspect master bedroom with en-suite shower room.
Arguably the most impressive part of the property is the open plan living/kitchen area which has integrated appliances, space for a dining room table and chairs and a large, West facing balcony.
Externally, there is well maintained communal grounds and allocated parking, whilst the building itself is accessed via secure telecom entry system, giving access to a generous lobby/post room where there is also lift access.
Perfect for anyone prioritising a commute in to the city via Reading's unrivalled transport links, further benefits include a plethora of close by shops, bars and restaurants, as well as the Oracle shopping complex.
