Set within the Chantry Court retirement development and offered with no onward chain, this ground-floor one-bedroom flat provides independent living with communal facilities and an on-site housing manager. French doors open directly onto attractive communal gardens, giving a private outside aspect while remaining within the city walls and close to shops, cafes and transport.
The apartment is compact at around 431 sq ft and laid out in a traditional style: entrance hall, lounge/diner, kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom. Practical features include secondary glazing, electric storage heaters and a long lease (circa 238 years). A garage provides parking — a useful asset in this central location.
Buyers should note this is a retirement property with a minimum purchaser age of 55. It is leasehold and carries an average service charge of approximately £3,144 per year and a small ground rent of £130. There is a medium flooding risk for the area and the locality records very high crime levels — both factors to verify before purchase.
This flat suits a downsizing retiree wanting central convenience, communal support and garden access without steps. It will particularly appeal to those who prioritise location and low-immediate-maintenance living; however anyone seeking larger internal space or a city-centre property in a lower-crime area should carefully consider the size and local risk profile.
