Chain-free 1-bed retirement flat overlooking south-facing communal gardens..
Chain-free 1-bedroom retirement flat, 507 sqft
A practical, chain-free 1-bedroom retirement flat on the first floor of Woodmere Court, designed for independent over-60s who want low-maintenance living close to Southgate. The apartment overlooks south-facing, well-kept communal gardens and benefits from lift access, resident management, and a Careline alarm service for peace of mind.
The bright lounge/diner with fireplace, fitted kitchen, modern shower room and built-in bedroom wardrobes make this an immediately usable home. Shared laundry facilities and an inviting communal lounge add convenience and opportunities for socialising without leaving the building. The property is 507 sq ft, an average-sized retirement layout with good storage and straightforward circulation.
Buyers should note practical considerations: heating is by electric storage heaters (no communal gas), broadband speeds are average, and the glazing was installed before 2002. The lease has around 92 years remaining and the tenure is leasehold. The wider area shows signs of deprivation despite good local transport links and nearby Southgate high street amenities.
This apartment will suit downsizers who prioritise location and simplicity—short walk to Southgate station and shops—over heavy investment in modernisation. It’s a sensible, low-hassle option for someone wanting an established retirement community with essential on-site support and outdoor space.
