Comfortable independent-living home with private garden and onsite garage.
Very large overall size — 1,273 sq ft (approx.)
A spacious two-bedroom retirement cottage thoughtfully set within well-kept communal grounds in Emmer Green. The house benefits from a wider-than-average layout, a main bedroom with adjoining dressing room, two shower rooms and a private south-west facing courtyard that captures afternoon sun. Practical additions include an on-site garage with electric door, useful loft storage and a stairlift to the first floor.
The development provides genuine peace of mind for independent living: two live-in managers, a 24-hour emergency call link, residents’ lounge, guest room and laundry facilities. The property is conveniently placed for local shops and Emmer Green Park, with good public transport links into Reading and fast rail services to London.
Buyers should note some material points: the service charge is above average at £1,627 per quarter (approx. £6,508 annually) and council tax is Band F. Broadband speeds are slow in the area and the fitted kitchen shows a mid-20th-century dated finish that will suit buyers seeking light updating rather than a fully modern scheme. The lease has 105 years remaining and ground rent is a nominal peppercorn.
Overall this cottage suits downsizers who want a roomy, low-maintenance home within a supported retirement community, with the potential to refresh interiors to personal taste while benefiting from secure communal services and a private garage.
