Summary - WOODSPRING COURT FLAT 6 GROVELANDS AVENUE SWINDON SN1 4EH
1 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Compact, low-maintenance retirement flat with communal facilities and parking.
Ground-floor retirement apartment with private patio access
This ground-floor retirement apartment in Old Town, Swindon, offers low-maintenance single-storey living with a private patio and communal gardens. The one-bedroom layout (approx. 387 sq ft) suits downsizers or those seeking easy access to local amenities and a settled community. The property is chain-free and well presented throughout, with a bright lounge that opens onto the patio and a modern shower room.
Practical features include off-street parking for residents and visitors, a 24-hour careline, and a communal residents’ lounge — useful for socialising and peace of mind. The building was constructed in the early 1990s and benefits from double glazing (installed before 2002) and cavity wall insulation, giving reasonable thermal performance for its age.
Notable considerations: the heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives; the property is leasehold (retirement development), so buyers should check lease length and service/management charges before proceeding. The private outdoor space is a small patio rather than a full garden, and overall internal space is compact, designed for single or pair occupancy.
For someone looking to downsize into a managed, low-maintenance home close to shops and local transport, this apartment delivers convenience and community with immediate availability due to no onward chain.
