A first-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment in Gheluvelt Court, set opposite Gheluvelt Park with pleasant leafy views and easy access to riverside walks. The development, built by McCarthy & Stone in 1995, provides age-restricted living (minimum 60) with a managed on-site team, 24-hour Appello emergency call system and communal facilities including a residents’ lounge, guest suite and laundry.
The apartment offers an average-sized living room, a separate fitted kitchen with plentiful natural light and a good-sized bedroom. The building benefits from lift access to all floors, rear landscaped gardens with a stream and nearby parking and bus links, making daily errands and visits straightforward for those downsizing.
Buyers should note the property uses electric storage heating and double glazing installed before 2002; the kitchen appears dated and may benefit from modernization. Service charge (£3,612.06) and ground rent (£476.70) apply, and the lease is a 125-year term from 1995 (around 94 years remaining). There is medium flood risk and local crime levels are above average — these factors should be considered alongside the development’s conveniences.
