A ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in D'Arcy Court offers easy, level access to Newton Abbot town centre and direct access onto well-kept communal gardens. The lounge/diner opens onto a paved patio, creating a light, single-level living space suited to those looking to downsize without compromising on comfort or local convenience.
The development is built for independent retirement living with on-site communal facilities: residents' lounge, laundry, guest suite, emergency pull cords, intercom and a resident house manager. The fitted kitchen, double bedroom with mirror-fronted wardrobes and an accessible shower room provide practical, low-maintenance accommodation.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold retirement property with approximately 98 years remaining, an annual service charge around £2,784, and ground rent currently about £679.58 per year. Heating is via electric storage heaters and the main fuel is electricity, which can mean higher running costs compared with gas-heated homes.
The location is convenient for public transport and the mainline station, but the wider area shows higher local crime and some area deprivation. There is a medium flood risk for the location — advisable to check specific insurance and flood-prevention guidance before committing. Parking is available by arrangement with the house manager.
