Light-filled top-floor retirement apartment with a penthouse feel, situated in the McCarthy & Stone-built Blenheim Court. The flat offers a comfortable one-bedroom layout with a modern living room, fitted kitchen, and shower room — ready for someone looking to downsize without sacrificing convenience. Lift access, a resident House Manager and a 24-hour emergency Careline provide security and reassurance.
The property is compact at about 462 sq ft, making it easy to maintain. Features include double glazing, built-in bedroom wardrobes, integrated kitchen appliances, and communal off-street parking. The development sits in an affluent, low-crime area close to local services, transport links and healthcare — convenient for everyday living.
Notable practical issues include electric storage heaters (higher running costs than gas), an unknown tenure and likely monthly service/estate fees or event charges associated with retirement developments. The apartment is suitable for those seeking a low-maintenance home with on-site support, but buyers should confirm tenure, service charges and any resale restrictions before committing.
Overall, this one-bedroom flat is best suited to downsizers or retirees seeking a secure, convenient base with communal support and easy upkeep rather than buyers wanting a large family home or a property requiring major renovation.
