The Orchard is a three-bedroom cottage situated on a beautiful estate grounds, part of a purpose-built retirement development for the over 55s managed by Cognatum Estates. The property is built on land once belonging to John Keble, a poet and founder of the Oxford Movement, and features local stone construction, garages, and a hidden garden square with a swimming pavilion and sun terrace. The estate is just a short walk from Fairford market place, which offers a range of shops, a weekly market, and historic attractions like the medieval church of St Mary. The surrounding area is rich in natural beauty, with opportunities to enjoy the outdoors at nearby attractions like the Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens. The property comes with a range of amenities and services, including a personal alarm system, resident estate managers, and maintenance of the buildings, grounds, and gardens, all of which are shared equally among the properties. The property is available with a 999-year lease and no ground rent, with a 1% charge on resale payable to the management company.
