This ground-floor apartment in Old Town, Swindon, offers practical, low-maintenance living in a secure gated development. At about 678 sq ft the layout gives two well-proportioned bedrooms, a generous lounge and a contemporary fitted kitchen with integrated white goods — ready to move into with no onward chain.
Practical features include allocated private parking, double glazing, EPC rating C and a remaining lease of 107 years. Service charge is modest at around £1,000 per year and ground rent is £227.86 per year. Heating is electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, which affects energy running costs.
Location suits first-time buyers, professionals and buy-to-let investors: central Old Town amenities, good nearby schools and excellent mobile signal. Note the area records very high local crime levels and broadband speeds are reported slow; factor these into commuting, working-from-home and tenant demand considerations.
Overall this is a modern, well-presented apartment with secure parking and low entry costs. It offers straightforward ownership on a long lease but requires acceptance of electric heating, the local crime statistic, and slower broadband speeds.
