Retire in style to Allcourt

A two bedroom cottage with terraced garden and garage. The property is located on a purpose-built retirement development for the over 55s. In recent years the heating system and the kitchen have been upgraded.  Management services are provided by Cognatum Estates, a not-for-profit organisation and one of the UK's leading companies in retirement housing.

Allcourt sits in two halves either side of a traditional wildflower meadow with a small pond. Its two and three-bedroom properties are built of local stone, as is the modernised 17th-Century cottage on the estate, and all offer excellent views of the serene and beautiful pastoral setting.The centre of Lechlade-on-Thames is but a few minutes’ walk away. An ancient market town with Georgian houses clustered around the market place, it is dominated by the slender, elegant spire of St Lawrence’s church, one of the great Gloucestershire wool churches. It has a good range of shops, as well as restaurants and pubs. It is also the highest navigable point on the Thames and from here you can walk the Thames Path or take to the water with a boat hired from the local marina and chandlery. Nearby possibilities for days out include the Mill and Trout Farm at Bibury, the 15th-Century ruins by the river in Minster Lovell, or the Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens. The bustling market towns of Cirencester, Stow-on-the-wold and Burford are also within easy reach.

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 the estate managers provide help and advice if needed.

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.
