2 bed 2 bath Retirement Property
Chain-free ground-floor retirement apartment with private garden and 24-hour careline, close to Stevenage Old Town.
Chain-free ground-floor apartment with direct private patio access
Astonia Lodge presents a chain-free, ground-floor retirement apartment with direct access to a private patio and south-facing communal garden. The two double bedrooms—including a main bedroom with fitted wardrobes and en-suite WC—plus a separate shower room make this a comfortable, low-maintenance home for downsizers or retired couples. The layout is wheelchair-friendly and thoughtfully fitted with illuminated switches and 24-hour careline support for peace of mind.
Residents benefit from onsite amenities including a lodge manager, communal lounge, games room, guest suite, and a wellbeing suite. The apartment is double-glazed, has integrated kitchen appliances, electric radiators and access to resident parking. Its location places you within walking distance of Stevenage Old Town shops and regular bus links to the town centre and station.
Important points to note: the property is leasehold (117 years remaining) with an annual ground rent of £625, which is relatively high and adds to ongoing costs. Heating is via a community scheme rather than an individual boiler, and broadband speeds are average. The area records higher-than-average crime levels, so buyers should consider security and insurance implications.
Overall this is a well-presented, purpose-built retirement apartment offering convenient single-level living, communal support facilities and easy access to local amenities. It suits buyers seeking independence with onsite assistance, or those looking to downsize into a secure, social community while remaining close to Old Town conveniences.
