This first-floor, one-bedroom retirement apartment sits on Stavordale Road, a short stroll from Weymouth harbour. Located within a well-maintained Victorian conversion, the flat benefits from lift access, private off-street parking and generous communal gardens — useful for outdoor relaxation and socialising with neighbours. Guest suites and communal laundry add practical flexibility for visiting family and for longer stays.
Internally the layout is straightforward: a sizeable lounge, separate kitchen, bedroom and shower room. At about 328 sq ft the apartment is compact and best suited to a single occupant or couple seeking a low-maintenance base near the coast. The property is chain-free and comes with an estimated 87 years remaining on the lease, making it immediately available but requiring awareness of lease length for future resale or mortgage considerations.
Buyers should weigh the running costs and local context: service charges and ground rent are significant (see figures below) and the wider area shows high crime and marked deprivation indices. Broadband is average and mobile signal is excellent. Overall this is a convenient, well-serviced retirement option for someone prioritising location, communal facilities and easy access to Weymouth’s harbour — but it is a small, leasehold flat with ongoing communal costs and local social challenges.
