The bright reception room flows to a semi-open kitchen and the property benefits from a large shower room and a fitted stair lift for improved mobility. Communal gardens and resident/guest parking enhance day-to-day comfort and social space.
Practical running costs include electric storage heating and an EPC rating of D. The property is chain free and quiet, set in an affluent suburb with fast broadband and low crime — appealing for those seeking independent retirement living near amenities. The flat’s total area is about 503 sq ft, offering an average-sized layout suitable for single occupancy or couples.
Important lease and cost details: the apartment is leasehold with reported remaining term around 61–66 years; this shorter lease may restrict some mortgage lenders and affect resale values. Service charges are relatively high at £4,080pa and ground rent is £50pa. Buyers should obtain specialist advice on lease implications and lender acceptability before committing.
The interior is well-maintained overall though the kitchen has a dated 1980s style and the property relies on electric storage heaters. For buyers seeking a mostly ready-to-live-in retirement home with scope to modernise the kitchen and update heating, this apartment represents a convenient, community-focused option.
