Quiet, low-maintenance living in a purpose-built retirement block, offered chain free and exclusively for the over-55s. The one-bedroom first-floor flat benefits from large double-glazed windows, built-in bedroom wardrobes and a recently updated bathroom with an electric shower and newer electric radiator. On-site comforts include communal laundry, landscaped gardens, off-street parking, a daytime development manager and a 24-hour Careline emergency response system for extra peace of mind.
Practical running notes: heating is by electric storage heaters and the main fuel is electricity, so running costs can be higher than gas-heated homes. The property is leasehold with around 60 years remaining and a ground rent of £210, which may restrict mortgage options and could deter some lenders — buyers should check finance availability before committing. The vendor is selling as seen and limited additional property information may be available.
The block is set in neat communal grounds with pleasant views over lawns and mature trees, a short walk or drive from Heathfield High Street and local bus services to larger towns and rail links. Broadband speeds are average, mobile signal is excellent and local crime levels are very low, making this a secure, convenient base for a single occupant or couple seeking low-maintenance retirement accommodation.
Internally there are signs the flat would benefit from cosmetic attention in places (photos show some wall cracks and damp in the living room), so buyers should allow for minor repairs or redecoration. Overall this is a practical, well-located retirement flat offering straightforward living with communal support and easy access to local shops and services.
