Set on the ground floor of a small, well-maintained development in Hungerford, this one-bedroom share-of-freehold flat suits buyers looking to downsize or retire close to town amenities. The open-plan living and kitchen area opens via patio doors onto a pretty communal garden, bringing light and a pleasant outlook. The double bedroom and modern shower room complete a compact, comfortable layout ideal for single occupancy or couples.
Practical positives include a very long lease (over 750 years), no ground rent, off-street parking for one car, double glazing and fast broadband — useful for working from home or staying connected. The flat is sold chain-free, making a quick move straightforward. Service charge is £1,440 for 2025/26, covering communal upkeep and garden maintenance.
Be aware this is a small property (approximately 407 sq ft) with electric heating, which can mean higher running costs compared with gas-heated homes. The development dates from the 1980s and is of brick construction with standard ceiling heights; communal areas are well-kept but maintenance is ongoing. Parking is limited to one space and the garden is communal rather than private.
Overall, the flat offers low-maintenance living in a very affluent, low-crime area with good local services and transport links. It’s best suited to a downsizer or retiree seeking town-fringe convenience and a long lease, rather than someone wanting a large, private garden or lower-energy heating system.
