This ground-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment offers practical, low-maintenance living in a popular McCarthy & Stone development close to Heavitree shopping and Pleasure Park. A spacious lounge/dining room opens onto a south-facing patio, extending the living space and providing a sunny spot for outdoor seating.
The building is designed for assisted independent living: a resident house manager (Mon–Fri), 24-hour Careline with emergency pull cords, lift access, mobility scooter store and regular communal events. Well-kept communal gardens, a residents’ car park and a guest suite add convenience for visiting family.
Internally the apartment is comfortable and efficient, with uPVC double glazing and electric storage heating. The layout suits a single buyer or couple seeking easy access and community life, though the kitchen and shower room are modest in size and the home is best described as average-sized rather than spacious.
Practical costs and tenure are important: the lease has 107 years remaining, the annual service charge is £3,050 and ground rent £395. There is no onward chain, making a quicker move possible. Buyers wanting lower running costs or alternative heating should note the property is electric heated and may not suit those seeking gas central heating.
