Summary - Apartment 52 Sycamore Court, 26, Filey Road, SCARBOROUGH YO11 2DZ
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Generous one-bedroom retirement flat with balcony, parking and 24-hour onsite care.
Owned off-street parking space included (original cost £6,000)
A spacious, well-presented one-bedroom retirement apartment on the third floor with a walk-out balcony and an owned parking space. The 693 sq ft layout gives a generous living room, a large double bedroom with walk-in wardrobe and a level-access shower room designed for ease of use. Onsite amenities include a bistro, guest suite, laundry room and communal lounge, with an estate manager and staffed support 24 hours a day.
The development is aimed at over-70s and includes practical services: an emergency call system, one hour of domestic help per week and bespoke care packages available. Full fibre broadband and excellent mobile signal make staying connected simple. The long lease (999 years from 2018) and owned parking space (original cost £6,000) are notable ownership advantages.
Be clear about the running costs and heating: the annual service charge (£10,097.19 for year ending 31/08/2025) is high, although six months of service charge is currently included in the offer. Main heating is by electric room heaters which can increase energy costs compared with central heating. The apartment is leasehold with a ground rent of £435 per year.
This apartment suits downsizers seeking convenience, social amenities and security rather than extensive private garden space or low communal charges. The communal living environment and service charge reflect the staffing and care provision; prospective buyers should review the service charge schedule and care options to confirm they match their budget and needs.
