Summary - 36 SHEPHARD MEAD TEWKESBURY GL20 5RR
2 bed 1 bath Bungalow
Low-maintenance ground-floor living with private south-facing patio.
Over-55s retirement development with on-site warden and alarm system
A compact, single-storey bungalow in a well-managed over-55s development, this two-bedroom home offers low-maintenance living with a bright lounge/diner and a modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances. The south-facing patio brings sunlight into the living space and provides a private spot for outdoor seating. The development includes communal facilities, a resident warden, emergency alarm system and communal gardens for convenience and social life.
The layout suits buyers looking to downsize without compromising on comfort: two double bedrooms, a contemporary shower room and an open-plan living/dining area create a practical, easy-to-manage home. Electric storage heating and double glazing keep running complexity low, and the compact 588 sq ft footprint means cleaning and upkeep are straightforward.
Important practical considerations are clear: the property sits within a leasehold retirement scheme with approximately 64 years remaining on the lease. This remaining term is likely to restrict mortgage options and some lenders may refuse to lend. There is also an ongoing service charge of about £172 pcm (c. £2,064 pa) which covers buildings insurance, maintenance and communal services.
The bungalow is centrally located in Tewkesbury with local amenities, health and leisure facilities within walking distance and good regional road and rail links. Buyers should weigh the convenience and on-site support against the lease length and service-charge commitment when deciding whether to view.
