Fleur de Lis Paignton is a purpose-built, age-exclusive apartment for over-60s offering independent living with strong communal facilities. The apartment is a large, split-level one-bedroom home with flexible reception space and a second-floor guest/occasional room, ideal for visitors or a home office. Residents benefit from an elegant furnished owners’ lounge, landscaped gardens, an onsite host Monday to Friday, and a 24-hour care line for added peace of mind.
The accommodation is well-presented with a fitted bedroom, built-in wardrobes, a luxury shower room with large step-in shower, and a kitchen with integrated appliances and Silestone worktops. The apartment’s layout gives visiting family their own separate space and plenty of light from floor-to-ceiling windows. EPC rating B and fast broadband/ excellent mobile signal support modern living and staying connected to local amenities and the seafront, both within a level walk.
Notable costs and considerations: this is a leasehold retirement property with 118 years remaining, an above-average annual service charge (£4,842.77) and a higher ground rent (£595 pa). Parking is available at an additional cost and subject to availability. The building uses a community heating scheme, which may limit individual control over heating. The immediate area records high crime statistics and is classified as very deprived, which buyers should weigh against the convenient town-centre location.
This home suits a buyer seeking sociable, low-maintenance retirement living with on-site support and communal life. It’s chain-free and offers immediate occupation potential, but budget carefully for ongoing service charges, ground rent, and optional parking.
