About this home
Offered for sale with no onward chain, this beautifully presented two-bedroom, first-floor apartment enjoys a corner position within Green Park Village. Built by St Edward, part of the Berkeley Group, the property combines contemporary interiors with a generous south and west-facing wraparound balcony. The open-plan kitchen, living and dining room forms the heart of the home, with large windows bringing in natural light and sliding doors opening directly onto the balcony. There is space for comfortable seating and a dining table, while the kitchen features coordinated cabinetry, a reflective splashback and an integrated oven and hob. Extending around two sides of the apartment, the balcony provides space for outdoor seating and dining, with glass balustrades retaining the outlook across the development and surrounding greenery. Its south and west-facing aspect makes it an inviting spot to enjoy afternoon and evening sunshine. Both bedrooms are well presented, with fitted mirrored wardrobes in the principal bedroom. The second bedroom offers flexibility as a bedroom, guest room or home office. A contemporary bathroom with a bath and shower above is complemented by a separate shower room, both accessed from the hallway. The entrance hall includes a useful storage cupboard with plumbing for a washing machine, keeping laundry appliances away from the main living space. A smart communal lobby and lift access complete this appealing home within one of Reading’s sought-after modern developments.
Communal Entrance The communal entrance creates a welcoming first impression, with contemporary seating, wood-effect flooring and soft lighting giving the lobby a smart, considered finish. Lift and stair access serve the upper floors.
Hallway The front door opens into a spacious hallway, with neutral décor and wood-effect flooring continuing through to the main living space. A built-in cupboard provides useful storage and plumbing for a washing machine, keeping laundry appliances tucked away and helping to minimise noise in the living area. Doors lead to both bedrooms, the bathroom, the separate shower room and the open-plan kitchen/living room
Living Room 3.56m x 6.93m At almost seven metres in length, the open-plan kitchen/living room provides a sociable space with distinct areas for cooking, dining and relaxing. The kitchen sits neatly at one end, allowing the living area to make the most of the corner position, natural light and direct access to the balcony. There is space for a dining table alongside the kitchen and comfortable seating towards the balcony doors, creating an easy flow that works equally well for everyday living and having friends over.
Kitchen The kitchen combines pale lower cabinets with contrasting wood-effect units, complemented by a reflective splashback and under-cabinet lighting. An integrated oven, hob and extractor sit alongside a stainless-steel sink, with tall cabinetry providing additional storage and a coordinated finish. Its position within the open-plan room means whoever is cooking can remain part of the conversation, with the dining area close at hand.
Bedroom 1 2.69m x 3.63m The principal bedroom is a calm, well-presented double room, with soft neutral décor and fitted mirrored wardrobes providing storage while reflecting light around the room. A tall window brings in natural light, and the layout accommodates a double bed with bedside furniture.
Shower room 1.7m x 1.7m A separate shower room provides a useful second washing facility, particularly when guests stay or for busy morning routines. It features a wide shower enclosure with sliding glass doors, a vanity washbasin with storage, a mirrored cabinet and a concealed-cistern WC, all finished with coordinated contemporary tiling.
Bedroom 2 2.64m x 3.63m The second bedroom offers flexibility for a range of needs. Currently arranged with a raised bed, storage and a study area, it could equally serve as a guest bedroom or a dedicated home office. A tall window provides natural light, while the neutral finish makes the room easy to personalise.
Bathroom The bathroom has a contemporary finish, with large-format tiling, a panelled bath with a shower above and a glass screen. A vanity unit incorporates the washbasin and storage beneath, complemented by a mirrored cabinet, a concealed-cistern WC and a chrome heated towel rail.
Balcony Accessed directly from the living area, the wraparound balcony is a standout feature, extending around two sides of the apartment. Glass balustrades retain the open outlook, while the recessed position and overhead cover give the space a sheltered feel. There is room to create separate seating areas, whether for a morning coffee, outdoor dining or simply sitting back and enjoying the view across the development and surrounding greenery.
Parking - Allocated parking The apartment benefits from one allocated parking space, with several visitor spaces located throughout the development for visiting friends and family.
