This well-presented two-bedroom retirement home sits in a quiet courtyard in the heart of Bampton, designed for residents aged 55 and over. The layout offers a front-facing sitting room, a kitchen/diner opening onto a patio, and walled communal gardens enjoyed on three sides. A nearby garage and an on-site manager add practical convenience, and the property is offered with no onward chain.
Accommodation is arranged over two floors with shower facilities on both levels, two first-floor bedrooms with fitted wardrobes, and comfortable living space sized for easy maintenance. The development’s peaceful setting places shops, the Co-op, medical services and local amenities within easy walking distance, while Witney and Faringdon are each about five miles away for wider shopping and services.
Practical points to note: the home runs on electric heating, so ongoing energy costs should be considered, and the property is leasehold with an annual service charge (about £2,640). Broadband speeds are average and the scheme suits those seeking a low-maintenance, community-focused retirement location rather than a family house.
Overall, this is an attractive option for downsizers who want a manageable home in a well-regarded small development, with the benefit of communal gardens, nearby parking and a central village location.
