Seymour Court offers a low-maintenance, retirement-friendly one-bedroom apartment on the second floor with a south‑easterly aspect and a small patio overlooking tidy communal grounds. The layout is compact (approximately 495 sq ft) and designed for independent living, with a walk‑in wardrobe, modern kitchen with waist‑height oven, and a shower room with slip‑resistant flooring.
Residents benefit from on-site support and communal facilities: a house manager, elegant lounge for socialising, guest suite, guest parking and a 24/7 emergency call system. Practical extras include full‑fibre broadband, raised power points, TV/telephone points and off‑street parking. The long lease (circa 999 years) and included buildings insurance add security.
Be aware of ongoing costs and some limitations: the service charge is £2,427.67 per year and ground rent is £425 per year (ground rent next review 06/2033). Heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, and the apartment is modest in size — best suited to one person or a couple. Local crime is recorded above average for the area.
Positioned in South Shields, the development sits close to bus routes, shops, cafés and the coastline, making it easy to access amenities and local attractions. This apartment will appeal to downsizers seeking a supportive community, convenient transport and seaside town living with straightforward upkeep.
