This first-floor retirement flat in Queens Court offers straightforward, low-effort coastal living with sea glimpses and no onward chain. The building provides practical support including a house manager, entry phone and a lift to all floors, plus free on-site parking and communal gardens for social or quiet outdoor time.
Internally the one-bedroom layout is an average-sized, ready-to-live-in apartment with a medium lounge, fitted kitchen and a compact shower room. Heating is by electric storage heaters and double glazing was fitted post-2002. The 94-year lease remaining is long enough for conventional mortgage options, but note the property is leasehold and carries an annual service charge.
This home suits older buyers seeking low-maintenance seaside accommodation and community facilities. Be aware the local area scores high for deprivation and crime, and service charges are substantial; check the service-charge breakdown and confirm the age-restriction conditions (female 60+, male 65+). Viewing is recommended to appreciate the communal spaces, sea aspect and practical layout for retirement living.
