Peaceful over-55s home with private courtyard and easy town access.
Chain-free over-55s terraced home with private courtyard patio
This bright, well-proportioned terraced retirement home sits within a converted Grade II listed former hospital development close to Marlborough town centre. The property offers light, airy reception rooms, a kitchen opening to a private courtyard patio, plus two first-floor bedrooms with fitted storage. Residents benefit from extensive communal gardens, a resident manager, guest suite, laundry and an on-site minibus service.
Practical aspects suit downsizers: there is a single garage and visitor parking, double glazing (pre-2002), and mains services. Heating is electric via room heaters, and the property is leasehold with about 123 years remaining. The development operates an age restriction (over 55) and prohibits holiday lets.
Important considerations are factual: the building’s Grade II listing may restrict alterations and can complicate repairs. The service charge is high at approximately £9,000 per year and council tax is described as quite expensive. The property uses electric heating rather than central heating, and local crime levels are above average.
Overall, this chain-free home will suit buyers seeking a peaceful, low-maintenance retirement setting with characterful period architecture, private outdoor space and communal facilities. Buyers should note listed-status constraints and the significant ongoing service charge when assessing value and long-term costs.
