Summary - CONISTAN PARK, 169A FLAT 4 SANDOWN ROAD SHANKLIN PO37 6HY
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Upper-floor two-bedroom apartment with parking and communal garden.
Recently renovated kitchen and bathroom
A comfortable, move-in-ready retirement apartment with contemporary finishes and practical conveniences. This top-floor two-bedroom flat has been freshly renovated, with a new kitchen, updated bathroom and recently replaced windows, so minimal immediate work is required. The lift serves all floors, making access straightforward despite the upper-floor position. Allocated off-street parking and a peaceful communal garden add valuable outside space for sitting or light gardening.
The flat is modest in size (approximately 610 sq ft) and laid out in a traditional plan suited to downsizers or anyone seeking a low-maintenance home. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than central gas, so running costs should be considered. Service charge is approximately £2,700 per year (about £225 per month, including water rates), and the property is held as a share of freehold — both important factors to budget for alongside a generally low council tax band.
Located in Shanklin close to local amenities, regular bus routes and a short walk from the seafront, this apartment is aimed at buyers aged 55 and over who prioritise convenience and ease of living. Safety is supported by low local crime and the building’s small number of flats gives a quieter, more private feel. Note the building dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s and has cavity walls with partial insulation, which may be relevant for long-term energy efficiency planning.
In short: a well-presented retirement flat that’s ready to enjoy, with sensible, upfront running costs and a few practical considerations — mainly its modest size and electric heating — for prospective buyers to weigh before viewing.
