A compact one-bedroom second-floor flat in Ryan Court, a purpose-built over-55s block in Blandford Forum town centre. The apartment offers straightforward, secure retirement living with communal lounge, laundry, lift access and on-site emergency pull cords and intercoms for peace of mind.
The flat is 367 sq ft with a lounge/diner, small fitted kitchen, bedroom with built-in wardrobe and an oversized shower room. Recent updates include newly installed UPVC double glazing and a newly fitted immersion heater (May 2025); heating is by electric night storage heaters.
Practical points for buyers: the property is leasehold with about 86 years remaining, an annual service charge of £2,866.34 and ground rent £436.64. The apartment is chain free and benefits from communal gardens and resident off-street parking, but the local crime rate is reported as high.
This is a straightforward, low-maintenance option for someone over 55 who prioritises safety, central location and communal facilities. It will suit buyers seeking convenience and community rather than a large, modern open-plan layout; cosmetic updating to the kitchen and interiors may be desired to personalise the space.
