Over-55 spacious flat with gated parking and communal facilities.
Wrap-around private balcony with river and cricket ground views
A spacious two-bedroom apartment in a purpose-built over-55s development, set on the edge of the River Tone with direct views over the County Cricket Ground. The large open-plan living/dining room opens onto a wrap-around private balcony, delivering a bright, sociable space ideal for relaxing or entertaining. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite; both bedrooms are generous in size for apartment living.
Practical features include gated private parking, lift access, an on-site estate manager, communal fourth-floor lounge and sun terrace, laundry facilities and a mobility scooter charging point. The apartment has double glazing and electric heating, ultrafast broadband availability and excellent mobile signal — useful for streaming, connecting with family, or working from home.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold retirement property with approximately 110 years remaining. Annual service charge and ground rent are significant: service charge currently £4,249.41 and ground rent £499 per year. Council Tax band G and the development sits within a higher-crime local area classification, which may affect insurance or personal security considerations.
Offered with no onward chain, this apartment will suit downsizers seeking a low-maintenance town-centre base with strong transport links, or investors targeting the retirement market. The property is well presented throughout but relies on electric heaters rather than a communal gas system, which may affect energy costs and comfort preferences.
