Set within a private over‑55s development in the heart of Purton, this one‑bedroom apartment offers practical, low‑maintenance living with long lease security. The flat comes with off‑street resident parking, access to communal gardens, and is within easy walking distance of local shops, bus links and village amenities.
The accommodation includes a comfortable living area, a fitted kitchen and a bathroom. The building is relatively modern and the property benefits from double glazing and an EPC rating of C, but heating is via electric storage heaters which can mean higher running costs than gas alternatives.
Notable running costs include a service charge of approximately £3,000 per annum and a ground rent of £200; these cover communal maintenance and facilities and should be factored into affordability calculations. The lease is exceptionally long at 966 years, offering secure tenure for buyers.
The bathroom and some internal fittings show their age and would benefit from updating to suit contemporary tastes and mobility needs. For a buyer seeking a manageable home in a very low‑crime, affluent area—particularly those downsizing or retiring—this apartment presents a straightforward, convenient option with scope to personalise.
