Set within the handsome stone-built Newlands House, Apartment 14 is a large, well-proportioned two-bedroom retirement apartment arranged on the second floor and linked to the main house. The layout offers generous living space — a near 20' sitting/dining room and a spacious kitchen/breakfast room — designed for comfortable independent living and entertaining. Level access throughout and a lift make day-to-day life easy.
Residents benefit from extensive communal amenities and carefully maintained formal gardens set in the North Cotswolds, plus on-site facilities including a communal lounge, restaurant, library and hairdresser. Heating is via a mains-gas boiler with underfloor heating for comfortable warmth; double glazing improves thermal performance and sound insulation. The apartment comes with a long lease (109 years remaining) and a communal-management framework that covers grounds and building maintenance.
Important practical points: this is a leasehold retirement property with an annual service charge and associated fees for care and communal services (buyers should confirm current figures and any transfer fees). Broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow, which may affect heavy streaming or remote-working needs. Council tax is above average for the area. Overall, this apartment suits downsizers or purchasers seeking a generous, low-maintenance home within a cared-for retirement community in a desirable Cotswold town.
