Summary - 2 SHEPHARD MEAD TEWKESBURY GL20 5RR
2 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Comfortable independent living with strong communal facilities for over-55s.
Ground-floor, two-bedroom sheltered maisonette with Abbey views
Light, ground-floor two-bedroom maisonette with attractive long views over Tewkesbury Abbey and communal gardens. The living room opens into a kitchen that overlooks the green outlook; the main bedroom has fitted wardrobes and the shower room is modern and walk-in. Electric storage heating and UPVC double glazing keep running and maintenance straightforward.
The development is for residents aged over 55 and offers strong communal amenities: laundry with Miele machines, a communal lounge, attractive gardens, a subsidised guest suite and a visiting warden. Unallocated off-street parking and a small private garden add outdoor space without heavy upkeep. The location sits on the edge of Tewkesbury with regular bus links to Cheltenham and Gloucester and local shops within walking distance.
Important lease and cost facts are plain: this is a leasehold property with around 63–64 years remaining. Many mortgage lenders will refuse to lend on leases of this length, so buyers should check finance options and legal advice before committing. The annual service and ground rent charge is around £2,717.64 (circa £226.47 pcm) and covers building insurance, communal maintenance and services.
This property suits active retirees or downsizers seeking independent living with social facilities and low-maintenance grounds. It offers ready-to-use accommodation with potential for light updating; however, the limited lease term and above-average local crime statistics are material considerations for buyers and advisors.
