Summary - Primett Road, Stevenage SG1 3EE
1 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Contemporary, low-maintenance one-bed ideal for downsizers seeking central convenience.
Chain-free one-bedroom retirement flat with long lease (995–999 years)
A bright one-bedroom retirement apartment set within a modern McCarthy & Stone development in Stevenage Old Town. Built in 2016 and offered chain-free, the flat benefits from a long lease (995–999 years remaining), a balcony, and an open-plan living area with a contemporary fitted kitchen and integrated appliances. The emergency pull cord and 24-hour call system provide peace of mind for over-60s residents.
Communal facilities and managed grounds create a supportive, sociable environment while on-site services include communal heating/electricity, cleaning, and building maintenance covered by the service charge. The apartment is presented in good order and can be sold furnished, making it straightforward to move into or let with minimal upfront work.
Buyers should note practical running costs: an annual service charge of £3,055.51 and ground rent of £425 (next review 2031). Parking is available to rent for circa £250 per year rather than included. The area records higher-than-average crime levels, which some buyers will want to consider alongside the excellent mobile signal and central, amenity-rich location.
This property will suit downsizers or buyers seeking a low-maintenance retirement base in a town-centre location, especially those valuing communal support and modern, energy-efficient heating. It also offers straightforward purchase terms for those wanting a quick, chain-free move.
