DESCRIPTION

8 Castle Court is a spacious and enviably located two bedroom ground floor apartment situated in this popular retirement development for the over 55's.

At 680 square feet, the property offers well-proportioned accommodation over one floor. All rooms are accessed off the hallway, where there are two very handy cupboards offering excellent storage.

What sets this apartment out from the majority is the fact it has direct access out onto the gardens from the spacious sitting room. This allows an extra level of independence and you do not have to rely on coming through the communal entrance to access the property. The galley style kitchen is fitted with a range of units and is positioned just off the sitting room.

Both bedrooms are of a good size and the main bedroom benefits from built in wardrobes. They are both served by the well-appointed shower room.

Castle Court is a fully serviced building which allows residents to retain their independence. It is regarded as one of the best retirement locations in Marlborough. The Manager is present in Reception part time on weekdays. The main entrance to the building is only accessible to residents: other visitors can enter using a call system in the lobby. The spacious Communal Lounge for socialising and the shared laundry are situated on the Ground floor. Every room has a pull cord for use in case assistance is required in an emergency.

OUTSIDE

There are about 48 apartments arranged over three floors with delightfully landscaped gardens which are very well maintained, with lawns leading down to the River Kennet. There is adequate parking for residents and visitors cars.

SITUATION

8 Castle Court is located moments from the High Street, conveniently placed for all that Marlborough has to offer. Marlborough is a vibrant market town with the high street enjoying the mantle of ‘the widest high street in England’. Recently ranked second best shopping destination in the UK, the town offers a mix of major retailers, independent boutiques, coffee and tea shops. National retailors include Waitrose and Tesco supermarkets, and the wide range of restaurants includes Dan’s, Pino’s, Rick Stein’s, Franklyn’s Bistro and Ask. There are further shopping areas in Hillier’s Yard and Hughenden ard, as well as the boutique cinema located on The Parade.

The local GP Surgery, Library and bank are also close. Although self-sufficient, the town is well placed for other towns including Swindon, Bath, Hungerford and Newbury, and is surrounded by the attractive countryside of the Marlborough Downs, Pewsey Vale and Kennet Valley. Rail links and M4 connections are at Pewsey, Great Bedwyn, Swindon and Hungerford.
