Compact, community-focused home ideal for independent later living.
First-floor retirement apartment with lift access
A one-bedroom first-floor retirement apartment in Blythe Court, a McCarthy & Stone development of 32 homes set in mature communal grounds. The block is served by a lift, has an on-site Development Manager and a 24-hour Appello emergency call system — practical features for independent later living.
The apartment offers a lounge, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom within about 460 sq ft. Communal amenities include a residents’ lounge, laundry room and a guest suite for visitors. The grounds are sizeable and well-maintained, and the location benefits from fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and low local crime in a very affluent area.
Practical points to note: the lease has approximately 86 years remaining and the property uses electric storage heating rather than gas. The interior shows dated decor and will need modernisation to suit contemporary tastes. Prospective buyers should also check any event or service charges that apply to the development before purchase.
This apartment will suit an older buyer seeking a low-maintenance, community-oriented base with support on site, or a downsizer wanting convenient communal facilities and nearby amenities. It is not a turn-key modern flat and will require some updating to maximise comfort and value.
