Award winning house-builder Crest Nicholson is pleased to announce plans to launch a contemporary development of one and two bedroom apartments close to Reading town centre. Following on from the success of previous development, Q2, Crest Nicholson is returning to Reading with a new offering of high quality homes at the brand new Priory Point.

Conveniently located near the town centre, Priory Point is the ideal choice for first time buyers, commuters or investors. Built to the high specification associated with Crest Nicholson, the one and two bedroom apartments provide fully fitted kitchens in a choice of styles and colours complete with stainless steel Bosch appliances. All bathrooms and en-suites contain classic white Roca suites, complemented by chrome Hansgrohe taps and fittings including a heated towel rail. Purchasers will also be able to personalise their homes with a choice of flooring and tiling.

Christine Tiernan, Sales and Marketing Director for Crest Nicholson South, comments: “Our previous development in Reading, Q2, was hugely popular, so we’re really pleased to be back with a new offering in the form of Priory Point. With a range of one and two bedroom apartments Priory Point is great for first time buyers looking to make the most of all that Reading town centre has to offer, including great commuter links. It’s also ideal for investors looking to make a return on rental costs, so we’re confident it will be just as popular as its predecessor.”

Situated on Southcote Lane, Priory Point offers the perfect combination of town and country living, with the shops, bars and restaurants of Reading town centre within walking distance, and the open vistas of Prospect Park just behind the development, as well as the lakes and waterside walks around the Kennet and Avon Canal just a mile away.
