Summary - GASKELL COURT FLAT 19 THORNTON END HOLYBOURNE ALTON GU34 4HF
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Compact ground-floor retirement flat with communal gardens, near Alton transport and amenities.
Ground-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment, over-60s scheme
A ground-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment in Gaskell Court, set within the sought-after village of Holybourne. The layout is compact and practical, with a living room, small kitchen, bedroom with built-in storage and a bathroom. Communal gardens and communal facilities provide pleasant outdoor space and social opportunities for over-60s residents.
Practical running costs include an estimated service charge of £284.17 pcm (approx. £3,410 pa) and a low Council Tax band B. The building dates from the 1980s and has double glazing; heating is by electric storage heaters and the property runs on individual electricity meters. Broadband speeds are currently slow, and external walls are assumed to have no added insulation, so heating bills may be higher than average.
Important lease information is inconsistent in the data provided and a material concern: lenders may refuse mortgages where lease length is low. The listing notes 99 years from 2007 (c. 81 years remaining) but also flags shorter remaining terms and warns that the lease may need prompt renewal. Buyers requiring mortgage finance should obtain lender confirmation before committing.
This apartment suits a purchaser seeking low-maintenance retirement living close to local amenities and transport links to Alton. The accommodation is tidy but compact and would benefit from light updating to kitchens and decor to personalise the space.
