Light-filled and quietly positioned above the riverside gardens, this two-storey penthouse offers generous living space (approx. 1,255 sq ft) arranged for comfortable retirement living. The large open-plan living/dining room benefits from windows to three elevations and views across the town centre, while a second-floor room with a Velux window could serve as a peaceful bedroom or home study.
The development provides attractive communal grounds that adjoin the River Severn, private resident parking, visitor spaces and an on-site house manager — features that suit older or more vulnerable residents seeking low-maintenance, secure living. Broadband is reported fast and mobile signal excellent, supporting modern connectivity and leisure needs.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the flat is leasehold with about 64 years remaining — a level that may cause mortgage lenders to refuse finance without lease extension. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the property relies on mains electricity; running costs may be higher than gas-heated alternatives. There is one family bathroom serving four bedrooms, which may be impractical for some households.
There is a medium flood risk for the area; purchasers should seek specific flood and insurance advice. Overall, this property will suit downsizers or retired buyers seeking riverside convenience and communal support, and those prepared to investigate lease extension and the implications of electric heating.
