This two-bedroom first-floor flat in The Firs offers a quiet, community-focused retirement setting close to local shops and services in Downend. The apartment benefits from an open outlook over pleasant communal grounds, off-street parking, a communal lounge, laundry and an on-site manager — practical features for comfortable independent living.
The accommodation is compact (about 603 sq ft) and arranged in a traditional layout with a bay-front sitting room, separate kitchen, two bedrooms and a shower room. A working stair lift is fitted to the shared stair to the first floor, helping access but note this is not the same as ground-floor living.
Buyers should be aware of two material points: the lease has around 76 years remaining and some mortgage lenders may refuse lending on that term; and the service charge is relatively high at approximately £3,972 per year. The building dates from the 1980s and will suit someone wanting a well-located, low-maintenance retirement home rather than a newly refurbished property.
Offered with no onward chain for quicker occupation, this apartment is best for downsizers or retired buyers seeking a social development with management support and convenient access to shops, healthcare and transport links. If lease length and service costs are acceptable, it provides an immediate, sensible retirement option.
