Summary - 6 New Pooles Lodge, 31 Maywood Crescent, BRISTOL BS16 4FB
2 bed 2 bath Retirement Property
Modern, low-maintenance home with onsite support and social facilities.
Ground-floor two-bedroom apartment with two private patios
A spacious two-bedroom ground-floor retirement apartment arranged around an open-plan living area and two private patios. The apartment was built in 2018, offers an ensuite to the main bedroom, a second shower room, and a fully fitted kitchen with integrated appliances — move-in ready for someone seeking low-effort living.
The development is designed for independence and peace of mind: an onsite Lodge Manager, 24-hour Careline emergency system, secure video entry, lift access, communal landscaped gardens and owners’ lounge with regular social events. There is off-street owners’ parking and the Guest Suite is available for visiting family; guests can also use suites at other Churchill Living developments.
Practical running costs and tenure details are important: the property is leasehold with an exceptionally long lease (c. 999 years) but has a high annual service charge (£5,474.07) and a substantial ground rent (£894.54) payable annually. Heating is via a community air-source system included in the service charge, which suits buyers wanting managed utilities but will limit individual control.
Located in Fishponds, about three miles from Bristol city centre, the development sits close to local shops, parks and frequent bus routes, with easy M32 access. This apartment will suit someone looking to downsize into a modern, secure retirement community with social amenities and minimal maintenance — but budget for the ongoing service charges and ground rent when assessing affordability.
