A bright, newly refurbished one-bedroom retirement apartment on the first floor of Hometor House, a purpose-built development within level walking distance of Exmouth town centre and the seafront. The double-aspect sitting/dining room and fitted bedroom provide comfortable, low-maintenance living for a single occupant or couple.
The apartment has a recently fitted kitchen and shower room, UPVC double glazing and electric storage heating. Hometor House offers lift access, a 24-hour emergency call system and communal outdoor seating, designed for residents aged 60+ (or one partner 55+).
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the lease has approximately 60 years remaining which may prevent mortgage lending; purchasers may therefore need cash or specialist lending. The property is in a high flooding risk area; appropriate insurance and flood-protection checks are recommended. Annual service charge and ground rent apply (approx. £2,753.60 service charge; £466.32 ground rent).
This flat suits downsizers or retirees seeking a seaside base with low day-to-day maintenance and convenient access to local amenities, but those needing mortgage finance or seeking low flood risk should consider the lease and location issues carefully.
