A ground-floor two-bedroom retirement apartment tucked into the quieter corner of Millfield Court, offered chain free and ready for immediate occupation. The living/dining room opens to a small paved patio and well-kept communal gardens, providing an easy, low-maintenance connection to outside space and a private outlook. Two double bedrooms and a separate bathroom make the layout comfortable for independent living or downsizing from a larger home.
The development is tailored for over-60s and includes 24-hour careline, an on-site house manager, residents’ lounge, guest suite and practical amenities such as laundry and buggy storage. Off-street resident parking is available and the building benefits from a secure entry system and lift access. Location is convenient for Crawley town centre, transport links and local services, which suits buyers who want accessibility without stairs.
Buyers should note the property uses electric heating and the annual service charge (£4,964.64) and ground rent (£425) are notable running costs. The lease has 108 years remaining; lease and service charge details should be confirmed by your solicitor. EPC is listed as tbc and the area records higher-than-average local crime and wider neighbourhood deprivation, which may influence insurance and personal security considerations.
Overall this is a well-presented, spacious retirement apartment offering immediate occupation, substantial communal support and garden access, balanced against ongoing service charges, electric heating and local area factors. It will suit a purchaser seeking convenience, onsite support and easy access to local amenities.
