PROPERTY DETAILS Acorn Drive is a highly sought after development offering independent living to the over 55s. Residents can easily maintain an active social life whilst enjoying peace and quiet in the well maintained communal areas. The community centre offers site help and provides regular opportunities to meet and socialise with other residents as much or as little as you like. There are also guest bedrooms that can be booked in advance for visitors as well as two laundry rooms and a large function lounge offering a library, kitchen, seating and games, organised by the staff and residents. A further benefit is the renewal of the lease to 99 years whenever someone new takes ownership.

This maisonette is located on the ground floor in a secluded area of the development. The new owners will be able to enjoy the private patio area to the front of the property, with plenty of room for pot plants and outdoor furniture if desired. Having your own front door means that you can also benefit from the porch cupboard for storing gardening tools or receiving parcels.

Entering the property through the porch, you will first step into the spacious, open plan living room and dining room. An electric fireplace creates a good focal point for the room as well as providing heat in the colder months. A cupboard in the dining area provides space saving solutions and has an electrical point meaning that an extra fridge or freezer could fit in this space. The hallway then leads through to the kitchen, which is fitted with integrated white goods including an oven which was refitted about 18 months ago. The double bedroom is fitted with floor to ceiling wardrobes and has scenic views over the manicured lawns and trees. The shower room has been decorated with floor to ceiling tiles and fitted with an updated shower pump. Completing the property is the airing cupboard in the hallway.

Close to Wokingham town centre, residents benefit from easy access to all shops and amenities. Independent boutiques are plentiful in addition to Waitrose and Aldi in the town centre. The recently developed Elm Field offering a variety of entertainment and leisure facilities including an Everyman cinema. There are regular markets in the town centre and events throughout the year.

Offered to the market with no onward chain, early viewing is advised.
