This bright ground-floor retirement apartment sits close to the main entrance of Pegasus Court, with French doors onto a private patio and landscaped communal gardens. The sitting room benefits from a feature fireplace and a glazed door that brings extra light; the bedroom has a bespoke fitted furniture range. Recent work includes a refurbished kitchen with new worktops and extractor, a replaced boiler, newly installed bathroom ventilation and freshly cleaned carpets throughout.
The development is purpose-built for older residents and includes a residents’ lounge, house manager, guest suite, laundry, gated car parking and an emergency pull-cord system. The flat is chain-free and comes with around 110 years remaining on the lease, making it straightforward to buy with immediate occupation possible.
Buyers should note material running costs and constraints: this is a leasehold property with an annual service charge of about £3,251 (paid six-monthly) and ground rent of £840 pa. Heating is electric (room heaters) and broadband speeds in the area are slow. The property also lies in a high flood-risk area, which may affect insurance costs and future resilience measures.
Overall this is a freshly renovated, low-maintenance one-bedroom apartment aimed at downsizers seeking a secure, sociable development near Wantage town centre and local green spaces. It offers immediate comfort and retirement-focused facilities but carries typical leasehold charges and some environmental considerations to weigh up.
