Sunny balcony and on-site care facilities ideal for independent over-70s.
South-easterly aspect with very large walk-out balcony overlooking communal gardens
A bright, south-easterly ground-floor flat with an exceptionally large walk-out balcony overlooking well-kept communal gardens. The layout is efficient, with a separate kitchen, walk-in wardrobe and a wet room designed for accessibility. Full-fibre broadband and off-street parking (permit scheme) add practical convenience.
This home sits within a McCarthy & Stone Retirement Living Plus development offering 24-hour staffed cover, an estate manager, on-site restaurant, residents’ lounge and one hour of domestic help per week included in the service charge. Additional bespoke care packages are available if required, and the development features mobility scooter storage, guest suite (additional charge) and easy access to buses and nearby green spaces.
Notable costs and conditions are clear: an annual service charge of £10,716.53 (year ending 30 Sept 2026) and ground rent of £435 per year apply. Purchase is restricted to buyers aged 70 and over. The property uses electric underfloor heating and the area records higher crime and relative deprivation indicators, which some buyers may wish to weigh against the on-site security and staffed support.
This apartment will suit someone seeking independent living with on-site care options and social facilities, who values outdoor access and communal amenities. It also offers long-term security with a 999-year lease from 2016 (990 years remaining shown) and practical features such as emergency pull cords throughout.
