Chain-free one-bedroom over-55s flat with parking and communal garden.
No onward chain, ready for quick sale
A compact, chain-free one-bedroom first-floor apartment in a gated over-55s development in Newport, Barnstaple. The flat is bright with a large living room that can accommodate a dining table, a rear-facing bedroom with built-in wardrobes, and a practical kitchen overlooking the communal gardens. Off-street parking and a small communal garden add low-maintenance outdoor space.
Practical features include gas central heating (Ideal Logic boiler), double glazing, a long lease issued in 1988 (999 years) and a modest service charge of £90 per month that covers building insurance, external maintenance and gardening. Broadband options range from standard to ultrafast depending on provider, and mobile signal is excellent locally.
Notable drawbacks are the dated décor in places and the untested stair lift, which is present but comes with no guarantee. The property is leasehold and intended specifically for purchasers aged over 55, which limits use. Council Tax is Band A and the EPC is C74. This apartment suits someone seeking a quiet, low-maintenance retirement home with potential to modernise rather than a move-in-perfect refurbishment-free purchase.
