Designed specifically for older buyers, this bright first-floor apartment sits within a flagship assisted-living community in central Bicester. Principal rooms face south, giving pleasant natural light to the generous sitting/dining room and bedroom. The layout includes a well-proportioned kitchen and a walk-in wet room with shower for easier accessibility.
Residents benefit from 24-hour on-site staffing, lift access from the ground floor, communal hotel-style facilities and a subsidised on-site restaurant, which together create a supportive, low-hassle lifestyle. Broadband and mobile coverage are excellent and the flat is chain-free, ready for a straightforward move.
Important costs and constraints are clear: the service charge is high at £8,459.60pa (review 31/3/25) and ground rent is £725.24pa (review 31/8/25). Heating is electric, and the building lies in a conservation area which may limit external alterations. The local area records higher-than-average crime, which buyers should consider against the property's secure, staffed setting.
Mechanically modern (built 2001) with an EPC rating of C and around 101 years remaining on the lease, this apartment suits someone seeking a low-maintenance, centrally located retirement base with on-site support and communal amenities, while accepting above-average running costs.
