Summary - Flat 32, Fairbanks Lodge, Furzehill Road WD6 2DQ
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Convenient, secure over-60s flat within minutes of Borehamwood high street.
One double bedroom with fitted wardrobes
This second-floor retirement flat at Fairbanks Lodge is designed for comfortable, low-maintenance living for those aged 60+. The generous double bedroom, large living/dining room and practical kitchen give a sensible, easy-to-manage layout across approximately 506 sq ft. Lift access, one allocated parking space and well-kept communal gardens add daily convenience.
Residents benefit from on-site support and facilities including a Lodge Manager, 24-hour emergency Careline, communal lounge, laundry room and a guest suite for visitors. The building is secure with video entry, intruder alarms and fire/smoke detection, and the location is a short walk to Borehamwood High Street and good transport links to London.
There are some practical negatives to note: heating is by electric storage heaters and the flat will suit purchasers comfortable with electric systems. The living room décor and carpets are dated and would benefit from modernisation to refresh the space. Service charges are above average at £4,260 pa, although the long lease (152 years) and low ground rent (£10) are strong tenure positives.
Overall this property suits a buyer seeking a ready-to-use retirement base close to shops and transport, with built-in on-site support and communal facilities. It offers long lease security and straightforward parking, with scope to update interiors to personal taste.
