A neat, purpose-built one-bedroom first-floor apartment designed for over‑50s or registered disabled buyers in the heart of Uttoxeter. The open-plan living/kitchen creates a bright, low-maintenance living space with gas central heating and double glazing. Communal gardens and a gated residents’ parking area add practical outdoor space and secure off-street parking.
Important lease information is transparent: 77 years currently remain and an application to extend the lease to 999 years is in progress. Short leases can affect mortgage availability—prospective buyers should check lender criteria and allow for possible additional lease-extension or legal costs, plus potential leasehold pack fees.
Service charge (£540 p.a.) and council tax band A (very low) keep running costs modest, but note the development has communal management and the communal car park is shared. The block is accessed by stairs (a stairlift could be fitted at buyer cost). The property is compact (circa 496 sq ft) and best suited to a single occupant or couple seeking town-centre convenience and easy-to-manage accommodation.
Buyers prioritising a long unencumbered lease or full independence from age-restricted blocks should consider these constraints. For downsizers or those seeking a centrally located retirement/assisted-living‑style apartment, this offers sensible value once lease implications are clarified.
