Located in the heart of Maidenhead, this McCarthy & Stone retirement apartment offers spacious two-bedroom, two-bath accommodation with an unusually large internal size (approximately 1,321 sq ft). The bright open-plan living and dining room opens onto a private balcony; the principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite and both bedrooms are generous in proportion. Allocated off-street parking and communal facilities — residents’ lounge, rooftop terrace, guest suite and mobility scooter store — add everyday convenience and sociability.
Practical features include a very long lease (991 years), an on-site house manager and a 24-hour emergency call system, giving a strong sense of security and support for independent living. The property sits within easy walking distance of shops, cafés and transport links including the Elizabeth Line, making errands and travel straightforward.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the development is in an area with higher crime levels and council tax is above average. Heating is by electric room heaters, which can be more costly than central systems, and the property is leasehold with an annual ground rent of £495. These factors affect running costs and should be factored into budget and suitability decisions.
Overall, this large retirement apartment suits someone seeking independence, communal facilities and convenient town-centre access, while accepting the trade-offs of electric heating, leasehold charges and local area challenges.
