Summary - Jowett Court, , Idle, BD10 8DF
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Well-presented one-bed retirement flat with lift, parking and communal facilities.
First-floor retirement apartment with lift access and house manager
A well-presented one-bedroom first-floor apartment in a McCarthy & Stone retirement development, designed for independent over-60s who want low-maintenance living. The layout offers a lounge/dining area with a glass curtain Juliette balcony, separate kitchen, walk-in shower room and built-in bedroom wardrobes. Lift access, a staffed house manager, communal lounge, landscaped gardens and a 24-hour emergency call system add security and convenience.
The development includes off-street parking and a guest suite (fee applies), and the service charge covers communal utilities, grounds upkeep and building insurance. The long lease (approx. 112 years remaining) and chain-free sale simplify purchase and future resale for buyers seeking a straightforward move.
Notable practical points: heating is electric (storage and wall heaters), so energy costs may be higher than gas-heated homes; the property has very slow broadband speeds. Annual service charge (£1,875) and ground rent (£475) apply; while these cover many communal services they add to ongoing costs. Local crime statistics are higher than average for the area, which buyers should weigh alongside the on-site security features.
This apartment will suit a single retiree or downsizer who values a managed, sociable development and low-maintenance living close to local amenities. Prospective buyers should verify service charge details, running costs (electricity approx. £600pa stated), and commission any surveys they require before purchase.
