Summary - 30 GORDON PALMER COURT READING RG30 1EY
1 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached Bungalow
Low-maintenance single-floor home with on-site support and private patio.
One double bedroom with built-in wardrobe
A compact one-bedroom bungalow arranged on a single level, suited to buyers looking to downsize into a managed retirement community. The accommodation includes a living room opening onto a private patio, a fitted kitchen and a double bedroom with built-in storage. The home is one of a mixed court of bungalows and flats with communal lounge, laundry and gardens.
Practical benefits include an on-site Court Manager five days a week, a 24-hour Careline alarm system, allocated off-street parking and communal maintenance included in the service charge. The property is sold as 70% shared ownership on a 99-year lease to be granted on purchase, and there is no ground rent. Council Tax is Band B and the home has double glazing.
Important points to note: heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives. The annual service charge is £2,368.22 and covers many communal services; purchasers should review the full service charge budget and rules (including any pet consents). A seller transfer fee applies on resale (2.5% + 0.5% per year owned) — check how this might affect future sale proceeds.
Positioned close to Reading town centre with good transport links and local shops, this bungalow offers low-maintenance, single-storey living within a supportive retirement environment. It will suit someone seeking manageable space, companionship from communal facilities and peace of mind from onsite support.
