About this property

***Stunning Over 55s Retirement Apartment with Panoramic Views, Share of Freehold and Long Lease***

Enjoying an elevated position with far-reaching views, this impressive one-bedroom fourth floor retirement apartment offers a rare combination of space, security and independence, exclusively for the over 55s.

Accessed via lift, the property immediately impresses with its generous proportions and well-considered layout. A welcoming entrance hallway leads through to a bright and spacious living room, where a charming bay window frames scenic outlooks across the surrounding area, creating a peaceful and light-filled living environment. The adjoining kitchen is conveniently positioned for everyday living, offering practicality without compromising on flow.

The accommodation continues with a well-appointed shower room and a particularly generous double bedroom located at the far end of the hallway, providing a quiet and comfortable retreat.

This apartment stands out further thanks to its exceptional tenure, offering approximately 959 years remaining on the lease alongside a valuable share of the freehold. With no ground rent payable and an annual service charge of approximately £2,135, the development is self-managed, giving residents greater control and peace of mind.

Externally, residents benefit from well-maintained communal gardens, ideal for relaxing outdoors, along with allocated residents parking. The location is equally appealing, situated close to Horton Hospital and within easy reach of Banbury town centre, supermarkets and local amenities via a short drive or convenient bus routes.

Perfectly suited to those seeking a secure and sociable lifestyle, this superb retirement property delivers both comfort and convenience in equal measure, all while enjoying a beautiful outlook that truly sets it apart.

Please note that an AML fee is chargeable to the buyer once an offer is accepted to cover the cost of carrying out the required identity and anti-money laundering checks. Once these checks have been completed, the fee cannot be refunded, even if the property purchase does not go ahead
