Top-floor apartment with lift access and private balcony
Quiet, secure and centrally located, this top-floor two-bedroom apartment in Birch Place is designed for comfortable retirement living. The property sits within a gated development built in 2017 and benefits from lift access, allocated off-street parking and a private balcony — practical features for easy, low-maintenance living close to shops and the station.
The layout provides two double bedrooms (master with ensuite), a separate sitting and dining area, a fitted kitchen with utility cupboard and ample built-in storage. The apartment has been newly renovated with contemporary finishes and bespoke wardrobes to both bedrooms, so it is ready to move into without immediate works.
Service charges and tenure are straightforward: a long lease (c. 992–999 years), ground rent circa £350pa and an average service charge of about £3,800pa. Council tax sits above average for the banding. There is no private garden; outdoor space is limited to the balcony and communal areas.
