This second-floor, two-bedroom apartment in Wallace Court offers low-maintenance, independent living in the heart of Ross-on-Wye. Set within a modern, red-brick development, the flat has a spacious lounge/dining room, a well-equipped kitchen and a walk-in shower — practical features for a retirement lifestyle. Lift access and a communal lounge with guest accommodation add convenience for visitors and socialising.
The apartment benefits from double glazing, FTTP broadband and off-street parking, and sits a short level walk from shops, a large supermarket and regular bus routes. There is no onward chain, and the building’s contemporary feel provides light-filled rooms with town views. EPC rating C gives reasonable energy performance for an electric-heated property.
Important practical points to note: the building is leasehold with about 106 years remaining, an above-average annual service charge (£4,862) and a ground rent of £495 pa. Heating is via electric night storage and wall heaters — running costs can be higher than gas systems. The development sits in an area reported with higher crime levels, which some buyers will want to weigh against the convenience of the town-centre location.
Overall, this apartment will suit an over-60s buyer seeking a low-upkeep, centrally placed retirement home with communal support and good connectivity, provided they are comfortable with leasehold charges and electric heating.
