The layout includes a spacious lounge/dining room, a fitted kitchen, two double bedrooms and a shower room, with a small private patio leading onto attractive communal gardens. The block benefits from on-site management, a residents’ lounge, laundry room and communal parking — useful for social life and practical needs.
Practical features include PVC double glazing, electric storage heating, an EPC rating of C and council tax band D. The apartment is leasehold with 102 years remaining and a total area of about 657 sq ft, making it a manageable property for downsizers who want a low-maintenance home without stairs.
Buyers should note the service charge is relatively high at £4,900 per year and there is an annual ground rent of £460. Heating is electric storage, which can mean higher running costs compared with gas; measurements and services have not been independently verified and prospective purchasers should arrange their own surveys and checks.
Overall, this is a comfortable, modern retirement flat in a well-kept development that will suit someone seeking communal support, easy access to local shops and services, and low-exertion outdoor space. It offers clear downsizing potential but comes with recurring service and heating costs to factor into affordability calculations.
