Summary -
Flat 7,Homefylde House 199-207,Whitegate Drive,BLACKPOOL,FY3 9EN
FY3 9EN
1 bed 1 bath Ground Flat
Supported, low-maintenance living close to shops and Stanley Park.
Bright ground-floor living room with garden access
A compact, ground-level one-bedroom apartment designed for independent older residents who value on-site support and community. The bright living room and accessible wet room make daily life straightforward, while communal gardens, a residents' lounge and a guest suite offer social and practical benefits. An on-site House Manager, 24-hour emergency call system and secure entry provide reassurance for those prioritising safety.
The accommodation spans 387 sq ft and is well suited to downsizers seeking low-maintenance living close to shops, buses and Stanley Park. The galley kitchen and double bedroom are functional, but the interior shows dated 1970s styling and would benefit from cosmetic modernisation to match contemporary tastes.
Be aware of important financial and location considerations: the lease has about 61 years remaining which may restrict mortgage options for some buyers. Annual costs include a service charge around £2,350 and ground rent about £440. The surrounding area is classed as deprived with above-average crime statistics; buyers should weigh location factors alongside the property’s support features.
This property is best for someone over 60 seeking a secure, communal setting with accessible features and manageable space, and who is comfortable with leasehold costs and potential refurbishment needs.
