A modern one-bedroom top-floor apartment in the heart of Old Town, Swindon, suited to buyers seeking low-maintenance, comfortable retirement living. The open-plan living room and fitted kitchen provide practical day-to-day space, while a large double bedroom with fitted wardrobes keeps storage straightforward. Lift access and communal landscaped gardens add convenience and pleasant outside space for residents.
This property is being marketed with the Homewise Home for Life Lifetime Lease option for purchasers aged 60+, which typically reduces the upfront cost (guide Lifetime Lease price shown at £70,250). The full market price is £105,000 for buyers not using the Lifetime Lease; actual Lifetime Lease price varies with age and the percentage of value you choose to safeguard.
Practical running costs are important: there are 106 years remaining on the lease, an annual service charge around £1,800 and ground rent about £250. The apartment includes allocated off-street parking and gas central heating; EPC rating B and low local crime reinforce its practical appeal. At 476 sq ft it’s compact—ideal for downsizers or investors but limited for those wanting larger living areas.
Chain-free sale and modern construction (c.2007–2011) reduce short-term maintenance risk, though communal charges and lease details should be checked by your solicitor. If you’re over 60 and value a simplified, central Old Town location with secure parking, this presents a sensible, low-upkeep option.
