Set within a sheltered retirement complex in the heart of Sheringham, this ground-floor one-bedroom flat offers a bright, south-facing outlook over communal gardens and a private garden entrance. Rooms are neatly presented with sealed-unit double glazing and off-peak electric heating, making the apartment straightforward to run for a single occupant or couple seeking low-maintenance living close to town amenities.
Residents benefit from on-site communal facilities including a lounge, laundry room and a rear communal car park, with easy walking access to shops, cafés and public transport. The private entrance from Barford Road provides direct garden access, while a secure communal entrance and lift add convenience and an extra layer of independence.
Important practical points: the home is leasehold with a service charge and ground rent payable, and the heating is electric night-storage/off-peak which can be more costly than gas. The flat is compact at about 404 sq ft, so it suits downsizers looking to trade space for location and community rather than those needing large living areas.
Purchasers must meet the age restriction for the development (residents over 60, or a couple where one is over 60 and the other over 55). The property is offered chain-free, making it a simple move for someone seeking a peaceful, low-maintenance base near Sheringham town centre.
