This first-floor retirement apartment at Faregrove Court offers low‑maintenance, purpose-built living close to Fareham town centre and transport links. The one double bedroom, separate kitchen and spacious lounge are well suited to a single occupant or couple seeking practical, manageable accommodation with on-site support and communal amenities.
Residents benefit from an on-site manager, guest suite, communal lounge and large well-kept gardens with paved paths. Off-street unallocated parking and double glazing add convenience; the building’s construction from the late 1990s means generally modern fabric and insulation. Broadband and mobile signal are good locally, and the property sits near shops, transport and health services.
Important practical points: the flat is leasehold with 105 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £3,432 and a ground rent of £395 per year. Heating is electric storage heaters (no gas), which can be more expensive than central systems for colder months. Parking is unallocated and crime levels in the immediate area are reported as above average.
Overall this apartment suits someone prioritising easy, managed retirement living close to town amenities. It offers straightforward presentation and communal support but carries typical leasehold costs and running-cost considerations (electric heating and service charges) that buyers should factor into affordability calculations.
