Set on the ground floor of a purpose-built over-60s development in the heart of Ross-on-Wye, this one-bedroom apartment offers easy, level access and a private patio overlooking communal gardens. New carpets throughout and double glazing give the flat a fresh, low-maintenance feel, while the living room’s patio door brings in garden views and natural light. The layout is practical: lounge/dining room, fitted kitchen, double bedroom with built-in wardrobe, and an accessible walk-in shower room with grab rails.
The development is designed for independent retirement living and includes a communal lounge, laundry, guest accommodation, 24/7 alarm and on-site social facilities that support a friendly community. Broadband is FTTP and mobile signal is excellent — useful for staying connected. The flat is sold chain free and has 106 years remaining on the lease, making it straightforward to buy for an eligible purchaser.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold retirement property with purchase conditions: a single resident must be 60+ or, for couples, one must be 60+ and the other 55+. Service charge and ground rent are a material ongoing cost (approx. £3,236.26 and £425 pa respectively). Heating is electric (night storage and wall heaters) which can be more costly than gas alternatives. The wider area records higher-than-average crime levels, so prospective buyers should factor local safety and security considerations into their decision.
