Kingston Bagpuize is a delightful village about 6 miles (10 km) west of Abingdon.
Kingston Bagpuize is derived from the village's original name Kingston plus the surname of Ralph de Bachepuz, a Norman nobleman from Bacquepuis in Normandy who aided William of Normandy in the Norman conquest of England in 1066. The village hosts many clubs and societies and has a post office, shops, village hall and tennis club.
The 26 spacious one and two bedroomed apartments, built and managed by SoHa Housing, are available for rent or shared ownership. Come and go as you please, safe in the knowledge that the friendly, professional and well-trained team are on hand to give you the support and reassurance you need to continue to live a fulfilling lifestyle in your own home.
What is Extra Care Housing?
The expert care we can provide ranges from practical help with getting dressed and bathed or household tasks, such as laundry and shopping, to companionship and conversation.
And it’s all tailored to your individual needs, so you can choose how much help you receive and when, and this can be adjusted as your needs change.
If you are currently finding it difficult to remain in your home but do not yet need or want the high level of care available in residential or nursing homes, Housing with Care may be just the right move for you. Whether you are on your own or in a couple, we can cater for your needs.
We also offer a 24-hour emergency response service, so you know that help is always at hand should you need it urgently.
