Move-in-ready over-60s flat close to town amenities and community facilities.
Private balcony with far-reaching views
This immaculately presented one-bedroom apartment in Hardy Lodge is designed for comfortable low-maintenance retirement living. A bright living room opens onto a private balcony with far-reaching views, offering a pleasant spot for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The fully fitted modern kitchen includes integrated appliances, while a generous double bedroom and contemporary fitted shower room complete the living space.
Residents benefit from communal facilities aimed at social living: an Owners’ Lounge with regular events, landscaped communal gardens, lift access and allocated private parking. Broadband is available via fibre-ready connections and mobile signal is excellent. The long lease (999 years from 2018) provides ownership security uncommon in many leasehold homes.
Be aware of ongoing costs and communal arrangements: the annual service charge is approximately £3,243 and ground rent is £809.88 per year (fixed for seven years). Heating is via a community scheme, which may limit individual control and could affect costs. The local area records higher-than-average crime levels, so buyers should consider security and personal preferences for location.
This apartment is best suited to an over-60 buyer seeking a move-in-ready home with social amenities and low maintenance responsibilities. Its town-centre proximity gives easy access to shops, services and public transport, while the compact, traditional layout and modest overall size suit downsizers looking for convenience rather than extensive living space.
