Property Description

Tenure: Leasehold

A three bedroom terrace cottage with garage, patio garden and conservatory. The property is located on a purpose-built retirement development for the over 55s. Management services are provided by Cognatum Estates, a not-for-profit organisation and one of the UK's leading companies in retirement housing.
The Orchard is built on land once belonging to John Keble, poet, curate and founder of the Oxford Movement. The two and three-bedroom properties all have garages and are built in local stone. Through an archway there is a hidden garden square, lined with fruit trees recalling the estate’s orchard origins. Some of the cottages overlook this garden, which has a swimming pavilion and sun terrace to one side.
The estate is just 250 yards from Fairford market place, which offers a wide variety of both contemporary and antique shops and also plays host to a weekly market. Fairford’s church of St Mary is simply one of the best in the country, known primarily for its breathtaking, medieval stained-glass windows, and the RAF Fairford is world-famous for it's spectacular aerial displays at the air show every July. Opportunities to enjoy the outdoors abound, with the Mill and Trout Farm at Bibury, the 15th-Century ruins by the river in Minster Lovell and the Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens all nearby. Then for days when the weather makes being outside less appealing, there is plenty to see and do in the bustling market towns of Cirencester, Stow-on-the-Wold and Burford.
Cognatum Estates maintains, repairs and insures all the buildings, arranges the window cleaning and refuse collection and tends to the gardens and grounds thereby freeing owners and residents from these responsibilities. There is a personal alarm system in each property and resident estate managers are on hand to provide support and help when needed, making this an ideal 'Lock Up & Leave' property.  
The cost of providing these services is shared equally between all properties. There are no restrictions on owning a property except that one resident must be over 55 years of age.
999 year lease (from 1984). No ground rent.
Please Note: Upon resale of the property, Cognatum Estates management company charge 1% of sale price plus VAT for the leasehold pack, payable by the vendor.
