[smartslider3 slider=51]

A RARE opportunity to live right at the heart of Wokingham’s town centre is now being offered by Martin & Co.

A unique two-bedroom apartment in an historic building is available to rent in Broad Street. Although the property may be a Grade II listed building, it has been given a modern makeover ensuring all home comforts.

A large communal entrance hall leads to the staircase and the entrance to the apartment, which opens to the living room with a feature window, original beams and high ceilings.

There is a TV satellite and telephone point and, being 17ft 2in by 15ft 5in, there is plenty of space for bookcases, sofas and furniture.

The kitchen is 17ft 2in by 7ft 8in and laid out galley style. All work surfaces are hard-wearing quartz, and the built-in appliances are by Miele. They include a four-ring ceramic hob with oven below, an integrated washer/dryer, a dishwasher, a fridge/freezer and a microwave.

The master bedroom is kingsize at 17ft 5in by 14ft 9in and has a fireplace as well as views of Broad Street.

The ensuite bathroom has a panel enclosed bath with mixer tap, a separate shower mixer, underfloor heating, tiled floors and walls, a heated chrome ladder, an extractor fan and a shaver point.

The same fit out applies to the second bedroom’s ensuite bathroom.

The second bedroom is 16ft 11in by 9ft 1in, and is accessible via the kitchen, for privacy there is a lobby separating the two rooms.

The property comes with one allocated parking space, although being in the town centre it is within walking distance of bus stops and the railway station.

It is available unfurnished for a monthly rental of £1,750 from July 31.

Mike Townend, managing director of Martin & Co’s Wokingham branch, said: “This is a terrific period property with many unique features.

“It is an ideal home for people who want the convenience of town centre living while also being able to enjoy a prestigious address.

“It really is a fantastic conversion and well worth seeing for yourself with its stunning living room and feature window.”

For more details, or to arrange a viewing, call Martin & Co’s Wokingham branch on 0118 334 2389, visit the Peach Street offices, or log on to wokingham.martinco.com
