Summary - LAKER COURT FLAT 11 GALES DRIVE CRAWLEY RH10 1QB
2 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Comfortable two-bedroom home close to shops and transport.
Chain free first-floor retirement flat for over-60s
Set on the first floor of a well-maintained development for the over-60s, this two-bedroom flat offers easy, low-effort living close to local shops and transport. The bright living/dining room with a feature fireplace and adjoining modern kitchen creates a comfortable day-to-day space. Both bedrooms are good-sized doubles with fitted wardrobes, so storage and overnight guest space are already provided.
The building includes communal gardens, residents' lounge, guest suite, lift access, a house manager and a 24-hour emergency call system — practical features for peace of mind. A resident car park provides off-street parking. The flat is offered chain free and benefits from double glazing and a modern bathroom suite.
Important practical points: this is a leasehold retirement property (125 years from 2001) with an annual ground rent of £410; service charge details must be confirmed by a solicitor. Heating is via electric storage heaters and broadband speeds in the area are slow. The wider area records a very high crime level, so prospective buyers should consider local safety factors and confirm building security arrangements.
This property will suit someone downsizing who values communal support, straightforward accommodation and proximity to amenities. Early inspection is recommended to confirm service charge figures, tenure details and the condition of fittings and heating before committing.
