This well-presented one-bedroom retirement apartment sits on the first floor of a purpose-built over-60s development, recently refurbished to a high standard. The open-plan lounge/diner leads to a sunny private balcony, and the fitted kitchen and fully tiled bathroom are ready to use. Lift access, secure intercom and generous storage add everyday convenience.
Residents benefit from attractive communal gardens and a social lounge, with shops, restaurants, Bournemouth town centre and Westbourne all within a short walk. The flat is comfortable in size (about 501 sq ft) and has excellent mobile and fast broadband — useful for staying connected.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold with 89 years remaining, and the service charge is substantial at £4,320 per year. Parking is available on a first-come, first-served basis rather than allocated spaces. The neighbourhood records above-average crime levels, so prospective buyers should factor local safety into their decision.
Overall, this apartment will suit an older buyer seeking a low-maintenance, move-in-ready home close to local amenities and social facilities. It delivers good communal facilities and a bright, modern interior, but the lease length, service charges and parking arrangement are important financial and practical considerations.
