This first-floor, two-bedroom retirement flat sits in a convenient town-centre location close to shops, doctors and the mainline station. The apartment enjoys garden-facing views and communal facilities including a residents’ lounge, laundry, guest suite and a 24‑hour Appello emergency system — practical features for independent over‑60s living.
The flat offers a lounge/dining room, two bedrooms, and a recently refitted kitchen and bathroom. At about 559 sq ft the overall size is compact, suitable for downsizers who want easy-to-manage accommodation with communal support on hand.
Important practical considerations are upfront: the lease has about 63 years remaining and many mortgage lenders may refuse to lend, which can restrict buyer options. The annual service charge is relatively high and the heating is by electric storage heaters, which may mean higher running costs.
This property is chain free and ready for occupation or potential investment for a cash buyer who values central location and retirement-focused amenities. The building dates from the 1980s and the flat will suit someone seeking convenience and community rather than extensive living space or modern heating systems.
