Modern 1-bed retirement flat with two balconies and on-site management in central Cobham.
Purpose-built retirement apartment (60+ age restriction)
This purpose-built retirement apartment in the heart of Cobham High Street offers convenient, low-maintenance living for the over-60s. The one-bedroom layout includes a spacious reception/dining room and two private balconies, bringing in light and fresh air from both aspects. The development, built in 2019, is lift-accessible and benefits from an on-site House Manager, a homeowners' lounge, guest suite and a 24-hour emergency call system.
Practical features include an allocated off-street parking space, a modern wet room-style shower and a large entrance storage cupboard. The apartment sits within walking distance of shops, cafes, banks and a library, with frequent bus services and the nearest train station around 1.4 miles away. With a long lease (994 years) and an EPC rating of B, the property is structurally modern and straightforward to maintain.
Buyers should note the costs and running details: an above-average service charge of £5,377.45 per annum, ground rent of £595 per annum and council tax in Band F. Heating is electric (room heaters), which may give higher running costs compared with gas-heated homes. The wider area shows low deprivation and good broadband and mobile signal levels, though local crime indicators are reported as high.
This apartment will suit someone seeking a secure, central retirement base with on-site support and easy access to town amenities. It offers comfortable, contemporary accommodation with clear communal benefits, but be sure to factor ongoing service charges, ground rent and electric heating costs into your budget.
