Secure, sociable one-bedroom retirement apartment close to Abingdon town centre.
South-facing one-bedroom retirement apartment with Juliette balcony
A comfortable, easy-to-manage one-bedroom retirement apartment in the well-regarded Albert Lodge development, ideal for over-60s seeking community living a short walk from Abingdon town centre. The apartment is bright and south-facing with a Juliette balcony, sensible storage, a fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, and a contemporary shower room. On-site support includes a manager, 24-hour care line, camera entry system and an owners’ lounge with coffee bar — practical safeguards for independent retirement living.
The building sits within attractive landscaped communal gardens with plenty of seating and is maintained to a modern standard. The property benefits from a long effective lease (994 years) and share of freehold, an EPC B rating and low flood risk — reassuring ownership details for buyers. Council tax is described as cheap and broadband and mobile signals are strong in the area.
Considerations: the accommodation is average-sized (541 sq ft) with a compact kitchen and carpet throughout, which may prompt cosmetic updates to suit personal taste. Heating is provided by a community scheme; prospective buyers should check service and maintenance arrangements. Communal retirement developments also mean shared spaces and rules, which suit many downsizers but may feel limiting to those seeking full independence.
Overall this apartment will suit a downsizer or retired buyer wanting a secure, sociable base in a charming market town, with easy access to amenities, regular markets and nearby independent shops and eateries.
