This first-floor, one-bedroom apartment in a purpose-built over-55s development offers a low-maintenance, accessible home finished to a high specification. The open-plan living/dining/kitchen opens onto a private balcony overlooking landscaped communal gardens, and the principal bedroom sits alongside a fully tiled wet room designed for mobility aid use. Lift access, a communal lounge and on-site parking add convenience for day-to-day living.
The development provides a supported-living environment with 24-hour monitoring, a daily management team and a visitors’ suite—features that suit buyers seeking security and community. Built in 2019 and completed to a high standard in 2021, the apartment benefits from integrated kitchen appliances and a large storage cupboard in the entrance hall.
Practical points to note: the sale is 75% shared ownership on a lease with 121 years remaining, and a monthly service charge of £541.31 covers communal services including heating under a community scheme, warden control and wellbeing support. Parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis, and some homeowners may find that shared-ownership rules restrict full independence.
Buyers should also consider local factors: the area is very affluent with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, but local crime levels are above average. Prospective purchasers are advised to satisfy themselves about appliance warranties and communal management arrangements before committing.
