Chain-free flat with long lease and rural views, ideal for calm, low-maintenance living.
First-floor two-bedroom flat in 55+ development
A peaceful two-bedroom first-floor flat in an age-restricted (55+) development, offered chain-free and with a share of the freehold. The layout comprises entrance hall with storage, generous lounge, separate breakfast kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom. The rear aspect looks over open fields, giving pleasant rural views and a calm outlook.
Practical details suit low-maintenance living: a long 999-year lease from 2019, quarterly service charge (recently £390.07) and a small annual ground rent of £50. There is a garage and access to well-kept communal gardens shared across the eleven-property development, plus good broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Note the heating and services are electric only (storage heaters) and there is no gas supply; double glazing is present but install date is unknown. The flat is on the first floor and reached by stairs, so it may not suit anyone with significant mobility needs. Expect a moderate council tax band and an average local crime level.
This property will appeal to buyers looking for quiet, low-upkeep retirement accommodation with long lease security, countryside views and easy access to village amenities such as a Co-op, café and local pub. It also presents potential interest for investors seeking a straightforward, well-managed retirement-let asset, subject to age-restriction considerations.
