This well-presented second-floor retirement apartment in Pegasus Court offers manageable, comfortable living for someone looking to downsize. The spacious lounge/diner and double bedroom provide generous proportions for a one-bedroom flat, while communal facilities add convenience and social options. The development includes a residents’ lounge, laundry, fitness suite, guest suite and battery charging for mobility scooters.
Practical features include a fitted kitchen, a four-piece bathroom, double glazing and a lift to the second floor; there is no upward chain so a quick move is possible. The building was constructed in the mid-2000s and benefits from an intercom, 24-hour emergency pull-cord system and on-site estate management for added peace of mind.
Notable costs and constraints are transparent: the property is leasehold with approximately 105 years remaining, an annual service charge around £3,460.64 and a ground rent of about £399. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives. The flat is average-sized at about 517 sq ft, so it suits someone seeking a compact, low-maintenance home rather than larger living space.
For someone prioritising easy-to-manage accommodation, onsite support and communal amenities close to Shirley’s shops and transport links, this apartment is a sensible, turn-key option. Prospective buyers should verify service charge details, lease terms and running costs through their solicitor before committing.
