2 bed flat for sale

Heslington Court, Heslington, York YO10

Set within Heslington Court, a small, close-knit community of just 28 self-contained leasehold apartments designed to support independent living, this well-presented two bedroom first floor apartment forms part of an over 55's development offering a safe, inclusive environment. Owned for approximately five years, the property has been updated throughout, including re-plastering and re-decoration, a newly installed boiler, updated carpets and blinds, and selected integrated kitchen appliances.

The scheme benefits from an on-site resident manager five days a week and a Tunstall emergency response system, and is offered on a shared ownership basis, with a purchaser acquiring a 70 percent interest and the remaining 30 percent supported by a government grant.

An entrance hall leads through to the first floor landing, providing access to useful storage cupboards, loft access, a front door entry system and an emergency response unit. The lounge is a generous reception room, featuring ceiling coving, a front-facing window and a walk-in storage cupboard, while the kitchen is fitted with a range of matching base and wall units, roll top work surfaces, tiled splashbacks, an electric oven, ceramic hob, sink and tiled flooring, with a window to the front.

Two bedrooms complete the accommodation, the principal bedroom sits to the rear, while the second could equally serve as a dining room, featuring French doors opening onto a Juliet balcony. The shower room offers a walk-in shower, vanity unit, wall-hung toilet, heated towel rail and a rear-facing window.

Externally, residents enjoy well-maintained communal gardens, on-street parking, and access to a communal lounge and laundry room, with laundry facilities included within the service charge. Heslington Court itself sits within a quiet, leafy and secluded residential setting, yet remains conveniently close to Heslington village, with regular bus connections to York nearby.

Anti-Money Laundering Compliance

We are legally required to conduct Anti Money Laundering checks on all purchasers, sellers, and giftors. These checks become mandatory when a seller accepts a purchaser's offer on a property. Anti-Money Laundering checks are valid for 6 months from the date they are completed. If your purchase does not proceed and you make an offer on another property more than 6 months later, or if your checks are more than 6 months old when making a new offer, you will need to complete and pay for new checks. We use a partner supplier MoveButler, to carry out these checks on our behalf. They will contact you directly once your offer has been accepted (subject to contract) to complete the electronic verification process securely. There is a non-refundable charge of £30 + VAT per purchaser and per giftor for these checks.. This fee must be paid before we can issue a memorandum of sale to solicitors and is non-refundable under any circumstances. Ashtons receive a portion of this fee from MoveButler as compensation for facilitating these checks and our administrative role in the compliance process.
