This ground-floor, two-bedroom retirement apartment at Oxlip House is offered chain-free and on a 75% shared ownership basis, designed for over-55s seeking convenience and community. The apartment has been newly renovated and neutrally decorated with new carpets, modern kitchen, fitted wardrobes and a wet room off the principal bedroom — ready to move into without major works.
Residents benefit from a strong communal offer: lounge, laundry, hair salon, activity room, guest accommodation and an on-site restaurant providing hot lunches and light suppers. The location is close to Bury St. Edmunds town centre with good local amenities and parking, in a low-crime, affluent area with reliable mobile signal.
Important practical points are straightforward: the lease has 113 years remaining and the property is leasehold with a high monthly service charge of £796 (includes gas, water and electric). There is also a core care charge of £64.65 per week and care visits from £24.32 per hour (minimum four hours), and BPHA will require affordability, care and eligibility checks for any purchaser.
This apartment suits buyers wanting a low-maintenance, well-equipped retirement base with on-site social and care facilities. It offers immediate occupation and communal support, but buyers should factor in ongoing service, care costs and the shared-ownership arrangement when assessing affordability and long-term plans.
