A well-proportioned two-bedroom retirement apartment located on the top floor within this popular development in the centre of Faringdon.

The apartment can be accessed by a lift or staircase and comprises an entrance hall with two large store cupboards. There is a good-sized kitchen with ample floor and wall mounted units and space for appliances. The sitting room is a bright dual aspect room, with a feature fireplace and electric fire inset.

There are two good-sized double bedrooms, one of which have fitted wardrobes, and a shower room completes the internal accommodation.

Faringdon Town is surrounded by some gorgeous rural countryside and the apartment enjoys glimpses of these views from each window

Eastfield Court has a communal car park plus a laundry room, residents' lounge and a visiting scheme manager. There is an active and friendly community at Eastfield Court with regular residents' meetings over coffee (with the scheme manager), informal gatherings in the garden, Saturday evening get-togethers and Christmas Lunches.

The apartment has an emergency call system and there is a monthly service charge payable to cover maintenance of communal areas, buildings insurance and the cost of the scheme manager. The properties are leasehold at 99 years from July 1988 and residents must be 60 years or over.

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, Junior and Infant schools as well as The Old Station Nursery, doctors’ and dentists’ surgeries and a 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 in 2004, Faringdon became the first Fairtrade town in the South East of England.
