The property is presented in very good decorative order and benefits from double glazing and gas central heating.
Important facts to note: the apartment is leasehold and attracts an annual service charge (£5,100) and ground rent (£350) together with Council Tax Band F, which will increase running costs. Broadband speeds are reported as slow despite excellent mobile signal. The development is gated and communal, so those seeking a fully independent house environment should consider this lifestyle difference.
Set close to St Giles Hill and around 500 metres from Winchester city centre, the location will suit residents who want easy access to shops, cultural amenities and green walking routes. Overall the apartment will appeal to downsizers or retirees seeking generous, well‑finished accommodation with strong communal amenities, balanced by the ongoing charges and service arrangements of a managed development.
