A bright, second-floor two-bedroom retirement apartment offered chain-free and presented in immaculate condition after recent redecoration and recarpeting. The flat benefits from a modern fitted kitchen and shower room, large windows and a pleasant outlook over well-kept communal gardens — ideal for someone looking to downsize with minimal upkeep.
Practical living is front and centre: compact but efficiently arranged rooms total about 503 sq ft, with communal parking and landscaped grounds maintained within the development. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal make staying connected easy, and local amenities are within easy reach of Melksham town centre.
Buyers should note material constraints: the lease has about 61 years remaining and some mortgage lenders may refuse to lend, so confirm finance options early. The service charge is around £3,000 pa and heating is by electric storage heaters, which can increase running costs compared with gas central heating. The area records higher crime levels, so consider personal security and insurance implications.
Overall this is a low-maintenance retirement apartment in a modern complex for a buyer seeking convenience and ready-to-live-in accommodation. It suits downsizers or cash buyers comfortable managing lease-length implications and an above-average service charge.
