Spacious one-bedroom retirement flat with extensive leisure facilities and countryside setting.
South-facing bright living/dining room with study alcove
Centrally positioned in the Leisure Block of St. George’s Park, this rarely available one-bedroom retirement apartment offers generous living space and direct access to extensive on-site facilities. The bright, south-facing living/dining room and well-appointed kitchen create a comfortable, low-maintenance home for someone seeking an active village lifestyle within 250 acres of cared-for grounds and countryside.
The property is attractively fitted and well presented throughout, with a spacious entrance hall, study alcove, fitted bedroom wardrobes and a modern en-suite level-access shower. Residents benefit from a full programme of leisure and social amenities including a pool and spa, gym, coffee shop, restaurant, hair salon, hobby rooms and staffed concierge — ideal for downsizers wanting community and convenience.
Practical considerations: this is a leasehold retirement property (108 years remaining). The service charge is substantial (£7,776 pa for 2025) and there is an annual ground rent of £300 plus an annual parking permit fee. On resale a transfer levy applies — 20% of the profit on resale plus an assignment fee — which materially affects long-term resale proceeds.
This apartment suits a buyer seeking a well-equipped retirement environment with extensive communal facilities and countryside setting, who accepts higher ongoing service charges and the specific resale levy attached to homes in this development.
