This bright first-floor one-bedroom apartment in Headley Lodge offers comfortable, low-maintenance living for the over-60s. The modern development provides an on-site manager, lift access, communal lounge and well-kept gardens, creating a friendly, secure environment close to Ashtead village amenities.
Internally the flat feels generous for a one-bedroom, with a large living/dining room and a double bedroom both offering good proportions. The building benefits from communal heating and services included in the service charge (Sky Q CCTV, 24/7 careline, gardening, lift and window maintenance, building insurance and communal utilities), simplifying day-to-day running for residents.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold (117 years remaining) and sold chain free. There is no private garden or balcony and broadband speeds are reported as slow. Communal parking is available but unallocated, and heating is provided via a community scheme rather than an independent boiler — factors to consider for personal preference and running costs.
Overall this is a sensible, secure option for downsizers or retirees who value convenience, on-site support and a social communal setting, with straightforward maintenance handled through the service charge.
