This bright third-floor apartment in Edward House offers low-maintenance, ready-to-move-in living designed for those aged 70 and over. The open-plan lounge with Juliet balcony faces Hertford Castle and fills the space with light, while a modern kitchen and walk-in wardrobe give convenient everyday comfort. Underfloor heating and emergency pull-cords add practical comfort and peace of mind.
Residents benefit from extensive on-site amenities including a bistro, wellness suite, communal lounge, landscaped gardens, guest suite and 24-hour staffing. One hour of domestic assistance per week is included in the service charge, with additional hours available by arrangement. An allocated off-street parking space and lift access make the property easy to use for visitors and owners alike.
Important financial points are transparent: the apartment is leasehold with a very long 999-year lease, an annual service charge of £10,436.84 and ground rent of £435 pa. The service charge covers communal heating, water for communal areas, buildings insurance and many on-site services, but it is a significant ongoing cost to factor into budget planning.
Overall this is a well-presented, newly renovated retirement apartment that suits buyers seeking security, communal facilities and a central Hertford location. Buyers should balance the lifestyle benefits and comprehensive on-site support against the high service charge and leasehold costs.
