Summary - Flat 44 Williamson Court, 142, Greaves Road, LANCASTER LA1 4AR
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Third-floor, two-bed retirement apartment with 24-hour care and on-site restaurant.
Dual-aspect third-floor corner apartment with Juliet balcony
A light-filled two-bedroom corner apartment on the third floor of Williamson Court, designed for assisted retirement living. The dual-aspect lounge with Juliet balcony and an attractively fitted kitchen create a comfortable, low-maintenance home for someone seeking security and sociable communal life close to Lancaster city centre and the canal.
Williamson Court offers round-the-clock reassurance: CQC-registered care staff on site 24 hours, a 24-hour emergency call system, Estate Manager, camera door entry and a staffed on-site restaurant. Communal facilities include a residents’ lounge, laundry, guest suite (additional charge) and mobility scooter store — practical extras that support independent living with immediate help available.
Practical considerations include very high annual service charges and a significant ground rent. The long lease (999 years from 2016) and off-street parking (permit, subject to availability) are positives, but the annual service charge of £12,957.94 and ground rent of £510 should be factored into ongoing costs. The apartment is age-restricted to over-70s.
This property suits purchasers seeking a secure, sociable retirement base close to transport links and local amenities, who value onsite care and convenience over a private house garden. It’s broadly move-in ready, but buyers should budget for the high running costs when assessing affordability.
