Retire in style to St Peter's Close
A two bedroom cottage with patio garden and garage. The property is located on a purpose-built retirement development for the over 60s. Management services are provided by Cognatum Estates, a not-for-profit organisation and one of the UK's leading companies in retirement housing.
St Peter’s Close sits at the edge of the village of Goodworth Clatford, which is mentioned in the Domesday book, in the shelter of St Peter’s church and its imposing bell tower. The brick-and-flint cottages and apartments surround two courtyards, with the centrepiece a listed timber-framed barn that brings a rural elegance to the estate.
The village centre, which is just a short walk away, offers a shop/post office and two pubs. The larger town of Andover is then less than two miles away, with a wider variety of shops, services and leisure pursuits, including a theatre. Several sporting and leisure opportunities are close at hand, with the Hampshire Golf Club, Andover Cricket Club and Thruxton Motorsport Centre all less than 10 miles from the estate. Also nearby are the banks of the River Anton, flowing through the valley en route to the famous River Test, which provides some of the best fly fishing in the world.
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.
There is a laundry facility on site and a guest suite provides comfortable accommodation for family and friends. A minibus is available to take residents on regular shopping and other trips.
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 60 years of age.
150 year lease (from 1998). No ground rent.
Please Note: Upon resale of the property, Cognatum Estates management company charge £500 plus VAT for the leasehold pack, payable by the vendor.
