Low-maintenance first-floor flat close to Exmouth seafront and shops.
First-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment for over-60s
A well-presented one-bedroom retirement apartment on the first floor in the heart of Exmouth, convenient for shops, rail and bus links and close to the seafront. The layout is traditional and straightforward: entrance hall with good storage, bright living room opening to a compact kitchen, a double bedroom with built-in wardrobe and a shower room.
Designed for over-60s living, the development offers communal facilities including a residents’ lounge, laundry, gardens, limited parking, CCTV and a 24-hour careline. The flat benefits from double glazing, remote-controlled modern electric heating and a lift to upper floors, making daily life easier for less-mobile buyers.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with 109 years remaining, an annual service charge of approximately £3,939.56 and ground rent around £434 per year. Heating is by electric storage heaters (no communal gas) and there is limited residents’ parking. Local crime levels are recorded as very high — buyers should consider security and insurance implications.
This apartment suits a downsizer or retiree seeking a central, low-maintenance base near Exmouth’s amenities and coastline. It offers sensible communal support and social facilities, but also carries ongoing costs and some location drawbacks that should be weighed before viewing.
