This ground-floor one-bedroom retirement flat offers comfortable, low-maintenance living with direct views over attractive communal gardens. The spacious 20' lounge and practical fitted kitchen give a sense of space uncommon at this size, and a newly fitted 5'6" shower cubicle modernises the bathroom for immediate use.
The apartment sits within a well-maintained development with gated visitor parking, communal lounge and conservatory, laundry room and a guest suite—useful for visitors and socialising without leaving the complex. Local shops, cafés and restaurants are on the doorstep, with excellent mobile and fast broadband making the location convenient for everyday living and staying connected.
Important practical points: heating is by Economy 7 electric storage heaters and main fuel is electricity (not a communal system). The lease is long at 116–117 years remaining, and ground rent is low at £200 pa. However, the service charge is £4,205 pa, which is above average and should be factored into running costs.
Ideal for downsizers seeking a secure, sociable retirement setting with easy access to local amenities. The flat is ready to occupy but uses electric heating and comes in a traditional layout, so buyers wanting lower running costs or major energy upgrades should allow for potential works.
