Central, low-maintenance one-bedroom for over-55s with full emergency support.
Town-centre location with shops and transport close by
This one-bedroom, second-floor apartment in Homeview House offers low-maintenance, central Poole living for the over-55s. The McCarthy & Stone development provides lift access, a visiting development manager, a 24-hour Appello emergency call system and communal amenities including a residents’ lounge, guest suite and laundry.
The flat is compact (approximately 424 sq ft), with an open-plan layout and finishes typical of older retirement stock. It suits a single occupant or couple seeking easy access to shops, transport links and local services, with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal for staying connected.
Important lease and cost information: the original 99-year lease from 1979 leaves around 52–54 years remaining. Many mortgage lenders may refuse to lend on properties with this short a lease. Service charge and ground rent are payable (service charge approx. £2,769.42; ground rent £782.55), and the ground rent level is comparatively high. Buyers should obtain independent legal and financial advice before committing.
The apartment represents convenient, low-upkeep town-centre retirement living with communal support and parking nearby, but it carries material caveats: limited internal space, dated fittings that may need updating, and a lease length that could restrict mortgage options and future resale value.
