This bright first-floor retirement apartment in Wayfarer Place offers practical, low-maintenance living for downsizers. The dual-aspect sitting/dining room opens onto a private balcony, while two double bedrooms and two bathrooms provide flexible accommodation for visitors or a live-in carer. Built in 2019 by McCarthy & Stone, the building benefits from modern construction and purpose-built retirement features.
Residents have access to on-site facilities including a bistro, salon, lounge, guest suite and 24/7 call system, together with lift access and wheelchair-friendly circulation. The flat is presented with a fitted kitchen and integrated appliances and sits in the heart of Alresford, within easy walking distance of shops, cafes and the River Arle.
Important practical points are the leasehold tenure and ongoing costs: a 999-year lease remains, but the annual service charge is high at £12,689.01 and ground rent is £510 per year. Heating is by electric room heaters, which can be more expensive than gas central heating and should be factored into running costs.
Overall this apartment will suit buyers seeking a comfortable, well-serviced retirement base in a very affluent, convenient small-town location. It offers safety, communal support and easy access to local amenities, but the elevated service charge and electric heating are material considerations for budgeting buyers.
