The lease has about 108 years remaining and the development is well maintained externally, offering a secure, social setting for independent retirement living within a short, level walk to shops and services.
Buyers should note the flat is electrically heated via storage heaters and there is no mains gas, which may affect running costs compared with gas-heated homes. The annual service charge and ground rent (service charge £2,800.80 pa; ground rent £439.30 pa) are material ongoing costs but include many communal services. The apartment footprint is modest (approximately 422 sq ft) and offers limited private outdoor space, so it suits buyers prioritising low upkeep and convenient town-centre living rather than large gardens.
