This ground-floor, two-double-bedroom retirement apartment in St Clement Court (McCarthy & Stone, c.2004) is well suited to downsizers seeking low-maintenance, town-centre living. The apartment opens from a generous lounge/dining room straight onto a private patio and well-kept communal gardens, giving easy outdoor access without garden upkeep. On-site parking and a resident house manager add day-to-day convenience and security.
The layout is practical: entrance hall with storage, a fitted kitchen, shower room and two double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes. The building includes a communal lounge, laundry, guest suite and a 24-hour emergency call system — useful for independents who want peace of mind. Double glazing and Economy 7 electric storage heating are installed.
Important running costs and constraints are straightforward: the property is leasehold with about 121–125 years remaining, a ground rent of £230 every six months (£460pa) and a service charge of roughly £1,600 every six months (£3,200pa). Heating is electric storage (Economy 7) rather than gas — factor this into energy cost expectations. There is no onward chain, making a quicker move possible for a buyer ready to proceed.
Located adjacent to Urmston town centre, the apartment places shops, transport and local amenities close at hand. The flat’s size (c. 691 sq ft) and single-level living make it an accessible, low-maintenance option for over-60 purchasers or couples wanting a sensible, secure base close to facilities.
