Comfortable secure retirement living with communal facilities and balcony views.
Designed for over-60s with 24-hour emergency call system
This well-presented two-bedroom, two-bathroom first-floor apartment in Scudamore Place is designed for residents aged over 60 and offers secure, low-maintenance living close to local shops and transport. The light, neutral interior leads to a balcony with open views towards Llanthoney Priory Grounds; the building includes lift access, landscaped communal gardens, and one allocated parking space.
Practical features include an Economy 7 heating arrangement, Vent AXL air-exchange filtration, and an EPC rating of B. The development provides helpful onsite facilities: a homeowners’ lounge, guest suite, an on-site restaurant/bistro, a 24-hour emergency call system and a house manager (hours variable), which support independent living within a community setting.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold retirement property with 995 years remaining and an annual service charge of £4,941.72 (water included). Ground rent is £495 per year. Heating is electric (room heaters and electric mains), which may increase running costs despite the Economy 7 tariff. The site has a medium flooding risk—buyers may wish to check insurance costs and flood protections.
Overall this apartment suits someone seeking a secure, social over-60s community with modern finishes and on-site amenities. It offers convenience and low external maintenance, balanced by above-average service charges and electric heating running costs.
