About
Dove Court is a well-established development for the over 55s, situated in the centre of the historic market town of Faringdon.
This apartment is situated on the raised ground floor, benefiting substantially from its close proximity to the lift but due to the hill, actually has its own patio going straight out onto the communal gardens.
This apartment is well-presented throughout, you enter into the large and airy entrance hall and leads into the sitting/dining room which enjoys an attractive outlook over the communal gardens and your own patio.
In the hall there is a very useful large storage cupboard. The kitchen is of a good size and has a range of wall and floor mounted fitted units, electric hob, and an integrated eye-level oven.
The generously proportioned double bedroom has mirror-fronted built-in wardrobes and provides ample space for furnishings. Completing the accommodation is a shower room with a WC and wash hand basin.
Dove Court has a communal entrance hall and a spacious residents' lounge with a lively community.
Further amenities include a laundry room and a guest suite which can be used for visiting friends and family. Outside, there are beautiful and well-tended communal gardens and parking.
The property is offered for sale as end of chain.
The historic market town of Faringdon, dating back at least to the 12th century, has a thriving community and amenities such as the Leisure Centre, Library, Faringdon Community College, The Elms and Folly View primary schools as well as The Old Station Nursery, doctors’ and dentists’ surgeries and The Place Family Centre.
Buses travel from the town to private schools at Abingdon. The town now boasts three large supermarkets.
Faringdon is also ideally positioned for the A420, leading to the A34, M40 and M4 and mainline railway services from Swindon, Oxford, Oxford Parkway and Didcot Parkway.
There is a frequent bus service through the town from Swindon to Oxford and back, linking to rail services and airports.
The Tower on Folly Hill was built by Lord Berners in 1935 and affords panoramic views across four counties.
For over 20 years, the town has been twinned with Le Mêle-sur-Sarthe in France and more recently with Konigstein im Taunus in Germany.
In 2004, Faringdon became the first Fairtrade town in the South East of England.
