Description

A two double bedroom first floor apartment overlooking landscaped gardens with a fish pond and fountain. 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 Kennet Valley has been described as one of the most beautiful in southern England, and Islescourt is close to the centre of this historic village on the river Kennet. The local red-brick and clay-tiled cottages and apartments are set around a mature garden courtyard with lawns, herbaceous borders and a duck pond and fountain. 

It is just a few minutes' walk to Ramsbury’s pretty high street where there is a general store, post office, library and two excellent pubs. As well as sports activities such as tennis, bowls, cricket and football, there is a village choir, horticultural society, drama group and independent cinema, ‘The Ramsbury Roxy’. Further shopping and other amenities are available at nearby Marlborough and Hungerford, which has a mainline station. The surrounding area has several golf courses, Newbury Racecourse and the river Kennet itself, which is renowned as one of the country’s finest trout rivers.

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.  A resident estate manager makes this an ideal 'Lock up and Leave'.  All properties have a personal alarm system.  The cost of providing these services is shared equally between all properties.

999 year lease (from 1984), no ground rent and 55+ age covenant.

About Cognatum Property Limited, Wallingford

Industry affiliations:

Combining the very best in retirement housing management practice with over thirty years’ experience, our dedicated management team, based in Oxfordshire, understands the needs and requirements of Cognatum property owners. Working on not-for-profit principles, we are committed to providing a management service which works in the interests of residents.

The English Courtyard Association and Beechcroft Trust developments have much in common, whilst offering some differences in style and amenities. All are in high-quality locations and set in beautifully landscaped gardens. Each has a comprehensive estate management service with on-site managers who are trained to be professional good neighbours, caring and watchful but, at the same time, discreet and respectful of your privacy.

Our long-leasehold cottages and apartments are designed to match the quality of life provided in larger family houses, but with an eye to the future when it may be advantageous that aspects of property maintenance are handled by others. These are properties for those who want a more relaxed retirement without sacrificing standards, or perhaps wish to spend more time abroad and want a secure and maintained home whilst they are away.

Cognatum property is a specialist sales agency, independently funded . We maintain an enquiry list for those wishing to buy and can put them quickly in touch with owners selling their property on any one of our sixty developments spread across twenty-one counties.

Our professional staff have years of experience in the retirement market and have built up an unrivalled knowledge.

They are able to provide a full marketing and sales service, including advice on valuations, Home Information Packs, sales particulars and regular advertising in the national press.

Cognatum Property is unlike mainstream housing. People are not simply buying bricks and mortar, but unusually spacious properties with a uniquely experienced management service tailored for retired people, something Cognatum Property is well placed to explain to purchasers.

Our long-leasehold cottages and apartments are designed to match the quality of life provided in larger family houses, but with an eye to the future when it may be advantageous that aspects of property maintenance are handled by others.
