Unprecedented demand at Upcross Gardens

While the media continues to spread doom and gloom about the property market, at Millgate Homes’ Upcross Gardens off Berkeley Avenue in Reading it’s a different story.

Since opening the doors for business on 5th January, the development has seen unprecedented demand with twelve apartments being reserved and demand outstripping supply. Who says that the property market is in the doldrums?

The unprecedented interest can be explained by the unique combination of enviable location and Millgate’s reputation for superb design and finish, as Steve Woodford at Haslams explains:

“Upcross Gardens offers something quite different to other developments of apartments in the area. Not only is the location first class with the town centre within walking distance and the mainline station within easy reach, but it also has a lovely green setting thanks to the landscaped grounds which give it an air of tranquillity. All of the homes are available for private sale, benefit from parking and feature Millgate Homes’ generous specification and high quality fittings. Now that Upcross Gardens is complete, buyers have the confidence to make the move which is why January has seen such unprecedented demand.”

Lying less than a mile from central Reading, Upcross Gardens is well placed to take advantage of all that the cosmopolitan city has to offer. The Oracle centre and a host of shops, bars and eateries are within walking distance. But for those that need a car, all apartments have either allocated car port or undercroft parking.

Meanwhile, Reading provides a fantastic base for commuters with excellent transport links, particularly to London - Reading station offering regular, fast services to London Paddington in as little as 28 minutes* and the nearby M4 offers access to the national motorway network.

Millgate’s vision of restoring one of Reading’s heritage buildings and creating a new wing and pavilion in its grounds has been a labour of love but has now become a reality. The development is now complete, with all construction workers off site and each remaining apartment ready to move into. The selection of 2 bedroom apartments is priced from £199,950 and interested parties are urged to make their move now.
