One-bedroom first-floor apartment with private balcony and garden views
This well-presented one-bedroom first-floor apartment in Beech Haven Court offers a comfortable, low-maintenance home for someone looking to downsize into a friendly retirement setting. The living room opens to a private balcony with views over landscaped communal gardens, and the apartment benefits from a modern kitchen and walk-in shower room.
The development is purpose-built for over-55s and provides practical on-site amenities: communal lounge, laundry, guest suite, landscaped gardens and a 24-hour emergency call system with phone entry. Off-street resident and visitor parking and a Development Manager add convenience and reassurance.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold with 91 years remaining, and the annual service charge is £3,247.92. Main heating is via electric storage heaters (no gas), which can affect running costs compared with gas-heated homes. EPC rating B and no identified flood risk are positives for longevity and insurance.
Overall this apartment suits a purchaser seeking independence within a social, well-maintained retirement community. It’s ready to move into with minimal immediate work, but buyers should factor in service charges, lease length and electric heating when assessing long-term suitability.
