Bright, low-maintenance first-floor apartment arranged for residents aged 55 and over, offered chain-free in a well-kept development close to Orpington High Street and station. Two bedrooms include a master with an en suite shower, a modern fitted kitchen and a separate family bathroom — practical layout for independent living and visitors.
The building benefits from recent double glazing (installed 2023), gas central heating with boiler and radiators, gated off-street parking and attractive communal gardens. The development was constructed in the late 1990s/early 2000s and presents a modern-traditional brick façade with communal grounds maintained for residents' use.
Important practical details: this is a leasehold retirement apartment with approximately 97 years remaining. Current service charge averages £2,856.24 per year (£238.02 per month) and ground rent is £195 per year. EPC rating C and council tax is above average for the area.
Buyers should note local safety statistics show very high crime levels in the immediate area, and as a first-floor flat there is limited private garden space despite excellent communal grounds. The property suits someone seeking low-maintenance, centrally located retirement accommodation with convenient transport links and resident parking.
