What our community say about the house.

“Living here has been such a wonderful experience. Our room is bright, spacious, and felt like home from day one. The location is amazing — the gym is just around the corner, and shops like Morrisons, Aldi, Home Bargains, The Range, H&M, and even Costco are all so close by, which makes life so convenient. The house is well looked after, and Mischa has been such a kind and supportive landlord — genuinely one of the best I’ve met.  I’d happily recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to live.” Yas

"... Landlord Mischa is always prompt with his responses to any queries and is always happy to help whenever there is an issue. I’ve had lovely memories staying here and would recommend it to anyone looking for a flat in central Reading” Susy

"We have rented a property from Mischa and Emma for the past 12 months and they have been amazing landlords. Mischa is always friendly and happy to help. Whenever we have had an issue he has responded very quickly and has been able to resolve it. The flat was in a great location in Reading with high quality furnishings. We shall miss having them as Landlords" Molly
