2 bed 1 bath Ground Flat
Low-maintenance retirement living near station and High Street.
Ground-floor two-bedroom apartment, about 625 sq ft
A bright two-bedroom ground-floor apartment in a popular riverside development, offered with a Homewise Lifetime Lease example price of £165,500 (market price £250,000). The open-plan living/dining/kitchen provides comfortable, flexible space (approximately 625 sq ft) with modern double glazing, gas central heating and secure underground parking. Communal gardens and a short walk to the High Street and mainline station add everyday convenience.
This property is presented as suitable for retirement living and is available through Homewise’s Home for Life plan for buyers aged 60+. The Lifetime Lease can reduce the up-front cost (typical savings 20–50% depending on age and circumstances) and allows purchase of up to 50% share to safeguard value. The long lease (978 years) provides tenure security; full-market purchase at £250,000 remains an option.
Practical points you should note: the home is leasehold with an average service charge around £2,000pa and ground rent approximately £200pa. The location has a medium flood risk and local crime is above average — both factors to consider for insurance and personal safety. Broadband and mobile signal are excellent, and the property dates from 2003–2006 with modern construction and insulated cavity walls.
For buyers seeking an easy-to-manage retirement home or a buy-to-let near transport links, this apartment offers a secure, low-maintenance base with communal outdoor space and allocated underground parking. All details should be independently verified, including any suitability for specific needs and exact costs related to the Lifetime Lease or full purchase.
