Second-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment with lift access
Set within a purpose-built over-55s development, this second-floor one-bedroom apartment offers low-maintenance living close to local shops, a surgery and regular bus routes. The block has lift access, communal lounge and gardens, plus on-site laundry and an emergency pull-cord system for peace of mind.
The apartment is compact and practical: a bay-front lounge/diner, fitted kitchen, shower room and a double bedroom. Double glazing and electric storage heating keep the home self-contained; council tax band is low which helps running costs.
Buyers should note a material drawback: approximately 58 years remain on the lease. This may prevent many high-street mortgage lenders from offering loans. The property is sold chain-free but has a substantial annual service charge covering warden hours, communal maintenance and facilities.
This flat suits downsizers or cash buyers seeking a ready-made retirement base near Ipswich amenities. It offers social communal spaces and simple maintenance, but anyone needing mortgage finance should obtain lender confirmation before committing.
