Ready-to-move-in one-bedroom for over-55s near Abingdon town centre.
First-floor flat with lift access and southerly-facing window
Situated on the first floor with lift access, this newly renovated one-bedroom apartment offers a ready-to-live-in retirement home close to Abingdon town centre. The flat has a newly fitted kitchen and shower room, fresh carpets in the lounge, built-in bedroom wardrobes and a large southerly-facing window overlooking the shared gardens. EPC rating B and double glazing help keep running costs lower than average.
Cygnet Court is a popular over-55s development with well-tended communal gardens, a large residents’ lounge, laundry facilities and private resident parking. The apartment is sold with vacant possession and no onward chain, making it straightforward to move into or let as an investment for the retirement market. Ultrafast broadband and excellent mobile signal are available on site.
Buyers should note practical considerations: the property is leasehold with 88 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £2,800 and ground rent of £498.32. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the main heating control is manual, which can be less convenient and more costly than modern central heating systems.
There is a recorded history of flooding in the surrounding grounds, though this apartment sits on the first floor and is not considered at direct flood risk. The flat is compact (around 39 sq m / 420 sq ft) and will suit a single occupant or couple seeking manageable, low-maintenance living rather than a larger family home. Overall this is a practical, move-in-ready retirement flat in a well-served location, but check lease implications and long-term heating costs before committing.
