This chain-free, purpose-built retirement bungalow offers single-floor living in the Park Springs development — a practical option for over-60s seeking ease and low-maintenance days. The compact two-bedroom layout (approximately 660 sq ft) is bright and straightforward, with double glazing, gas central heating and a small private garden with side access.
The development sits close to West Swindon shopping, Asda and regular bus routes, making errands and appointments convenient. Broadband and mobile signal are both strong here, and council tax is described as low, which helps running costs. A garage adjoins the property but is sold separately by the management company if you wish to obtain it.
Important practical points: this is a leasehold retirement property with about 97 years remaining and an average annual service charge of around £3,264. The wider area shows high crime levels and significant deprivation, which may affect local amenity perception and long-term desirability. The bungalow is best suited to buyers prioritising single-level living and proximity to local shops rather than a rural or low-crime location.
