Summary - Flat 31 Thorneycroft, Wood Road, WOLVERHAMPTON WV6 8PR
Corner first-floor retirement apartment with wrap-around walk-out balcony
Set in the desirable Tettenhall village, this first-floor corner apartment in the Thorneycroft retirement development offers comfortable, low-maintenance living for the over-70s. The dual-aspect lounge opens onto a wrap-around walk-out balcony, and a modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances keeps daily life simple. Two double bedrooms, a shower room and separate guest WC give flexible space for visitors or hobbies.
The development is purpose-built for Retirement Living PLUS: 24-hour on-site staffing, a CQC-registered care team, emergency call system, homeowners’ lounge, on-site bistro and a bookable guest suite provide reassurance and social opportunities. Allocated off-street parking and ultrafast full-fibre broadband add convenience.
Buyers should note the material running costs. The annual service charge is £12,985.41 (covers staffing, communal utilities, one hour’s domestic assistance weekly and building upkeep) and ground rent is £510 per year. Council tax is above average and primary heating is electric underfloor heating, which may increase energy bills. The property is leasehold (999 years from 2017) so the long lease offers security.
This apartment suits someone seeking a secure, sociable retirement base in a very affluent area with local shops and good bus links into Wolverhampton. It’s well presented and ready to move into, but purchasers should factor the substantial service charge, ground rent and ongoing energy/council tax costs into affordability calculations.
