Local area: higher crime and area deprivation to consider
This ground-floor, one-bedroom apartment sits within a purpose-built over-50s development on Sharoe Green Lane, offering low-maintenance living and straightforward access to local shops and transport links. The layout is traditional: a reception room leading into a fitted kitchen, a bedroom with built-in storage and a bathroom with original fixtures. Shared amenities include a communal lounge, laundry room, gardens and off-street parking.
The flat is small (circa 388 sq ft) and will suit a buyer seeking a compact retirement base rather than generous living space. Heating appears to be electric (no central system present), and many internal fittings are original and would benefit from refurbishment to improve comfort and energy efficiency. The building was constructed in the late 1970s/early 1980s and has double glazing (install date unknown).
Practical running costs are clear: a modest ground rent of £6 pa, service charges averaging £1,896 pa (£158 pcm) and a Council Tax band B. The lease has approximately 87 years remaining. Note the wider area shows higher-than-average crime and local deprivation indicators—worth factoring into your decision and viewing.
For an over-50s buyer wanting communal facilities, easy parking and low day-to-day upkeep, this apartment offers straightforward, affordable ownership with scope to modernise. If you need larger rooms, central heating or long lease length, consider those factors before proceeding.
