1 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Compact, immaculate one-bed retirement flat with communal gardens and on-site manager.
Ground-floor one-bedroom apartment, living room opens to communal gardens
A compact, well-presented one-bedroom ground-floor apartment in a purpose-built over-55s complex, offered with no onward chain. The living room opens directly onto west-facing communal gardens, giving easy access to outdoor space and afternoon sun. The interior is in excellent condition with a newly installed shower suite and double glazing.
Brooklands provides strong communal support for retirement living: an on-site manager, two communal lounges, laundry, guest suite and well-maintained gardens. The block is minutes from Rayleigh High Street, with resident and visitor parking on site for convenience and local shops and buses within easy walking distance.
Practical points to note: the apartment is small (approximately 366 sq ft) and sold leasehold, so buyers should review lease terms and service charges. Heating is by electric storage heaters which can mean higher running costs compared with gas. The local area records above-average crime, so consider security and local services when viewing.
This property suits a downsizer seeking low-maintenance retirement living with community facilities and immediate access to town amenities. The flat’s ground-floor position and communal support make it a straightforward move for someone wanting a ready-to-live-in, secure community setting.
