This first-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment in Portman Court offers secure, sociable living with immediate availability and no onward chain.

Practical peace of mind comes from an on-site estate manager, 24/7 staffing and an emergency call system throughout the development. The location is a short walk from Uckfield High Street, supermarkets and public transport links, making everyday errands and visits simple without relying on a car.
There are material running costs and property specifics to note. The lease has about 108 years remaining and the property is subject to a high annual service charge (£11,103) plus a ground rent of £435. Heating is via electric storage heaters and glazing dates from before 2002 — both factors to consider for long-term energy use and comfort. The local area records higher crime levels, which potential buyers should weigh alongside the 24-hour staffing.
