A modern second-floor retirement apartment in the heart of Brentwood, set within a purpose-built complex finished in red brick and white weatherboard. The bright two-bedroom layout (approx. 710 sq ft) includes an ensuite to the principal bedroom, a separate kitchen, and a comfortable lounge — ideal for those seeking low-maintenance, communal living with full retirement facilities.
Practical positives include lift access, resident parking, well-kept communal gardens and a residents' lounge with organised activities. The location is highly convenient: shops and Sainsbury’s are nearby and Brentwood Station is about 0.8 miles away for regular rail services. The building dates from 2007–2011, benefits from double glazing and a mains gas boiler with radiator heating; EPC C and Council Tax Band D are recorded.
Important factual points: this is a leasehold retirement property with around 283 years remaining and a small ground rent (£250). The apartment faces onto a communal parking court rather than a private garden, and internal space is average for a two-bedroom upper-floor flat. The area is very affluent overall but recorded local crime levels are very high — town-centre living may bring more activity and noise than a quieter suburban setting. Prospective buyers should factor in service charges and communal management costs associated with the complex.
