A bright one-bedroom first-floor apartment in a purpose-built retirement complex in central Newent. The flat offers a large living room with electric fireplace, a fitted bedroom, and a compact modern kitchen — comfortable accommodation arranged over about 463 sq ft ideal for single occupancy.
Residents benefit from convenient off-street parking, a communal meeting room and accessible communal areas (stairs and lift). The location is very central with shops, a library, cafés and healthcare services all within easy walking distance, making daily errands straightforward.
Practical points: the property is leasehold and specifically for retirement living, with electric storage heaters as the main heating source (running costs can be higher than gas). Crime in the area is reported as above average, and the flat is modest in size, so buyers should expect straightforward, low-maintenance living rather than larger family accommodation.
This apartment suits a retiree seeking a low-maintenance, centrally located home with social communal facilities and parking. Budget-conscious buyers will welcome very low council tax, but should factor in energy costs linked to electric heating and service/ground rent on the leasehold tenure.
