A compact, well-presented first-floor retirement flat designed for over-60s, set within a purpose-built block close to South Harrow’s shops and transport links. The accommodation includes a bright lounge/diner, separate fitted kitchen, double bedroom, bathroom and hallway storage. Residents benefit from practical communal facilities: lounge, garden, laundry room, lift access and a 24-hour emergency call system with on-site warden support.
This property is offered chain free and includes unallocated off-street parking. Its location provides easy access to Waitrose, Asda, Aldi and South Harrow station (Piccadilly Line), making it convenient for shopping and commuting. The flat’s electric storage heating and double glazing are typical for the building’s era (constructed 1967–1975).
Important lease and cost information: the flat is leasehold with around 61–62 years remaining. Many mortgage lenders impose strict minimum lease requirements — lenders may refuse loans on this term, so buyers should check mortgageability or consider cash purchase. The current service charge is approximately £3,205.56 per annum and council tax is in Band C, so running costs should be factored into affordability.
The accommodation suits a single occupant or couple seeking the security and community of a retirement scheme with on-site support. It is compact and practical rather than spacious — a good option for someone prioritising location, communal amenities and the reassurance of warden-assisted living, provided they are comfortable with the lease length and service charges.
