This ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in Fairhaven Court offers low-maintenance retirement living with direct patio access to pleasant communal gardens. The development, built by McCarthy & Stone, provides on-site support from a resident development manager, a 24-hour emergency Appello call system and lift access to all floors — useful reassurance for buyers seeking independent, supported living.
Inside, the flat is presented in tidy, modern style with a medium-sized lounge, separate fitted kitchen and a double bedroom. Double glazing and electric storage heaters are fitted; broadband and mobile signal are strong in the area. The layout and ground-floor position make the apartment convenient for owners with limited mobility or those wanting easy access to communal facilities.
Practical costs and tenure details are important: the property is leasehold with approximately 89 years remaining (original 125-year lease from 1990), an annual service charge of £2,926.60 and a ground rent of £447.30. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives. The apartment is compact at around 450 sq ft, so it is best suited to a single occupant or couple seeking downsized, low-upkeep accommodation.
Fairhaven Court is in Boscombe close to local amenities and the seafront, with good transport links and nearby shops and clinics. The development’s communal laundry, residents’ lounge and guest suite add flexibility for visitors and socialising. Buyers should factor in the ongoing service charges and lease length when assessing long-term suitability.
