Quiet, low-maintenance living for the over-60s: this second-floor, one-bedroom retirement apartment sits in the well-regarded Hardys Court built in 2007. The bright lounge/diner opens via double doors to a Juliet balcony overlooking maintained communal gardens. A modern fitted kitchen, generous bedroom with built-in wardrobe and a contemporary walk-in shower room complete a practical, comfortable layout of about 582 sq ft.
Residents benefit from an on-site house manager, 24-hour careline, lift access, communal lounge, laundry, guest suite and mobility scooter store (subject to availability). The development has an active social programme and is close to local shops, bus stops and healthcare facilities — suited to someone seeking independent but supported retired living. The sale is chain-free and the lease has approximately 106 years remaining.
Practical matters to note: the property is leasehold with an annual service charge of around £2,351 and ground rent of £395. Heating is by electric storage heaters rather than gas; parking and scooter spaces are available but allocated subject to availability. Crime statistics in the area are above average, which some buyers may wish to consider.
This apartment will suit a buyer who values community, convenience and a manageable home with minimal garden upkeep. There is scope to personalise the decor and fittings, but no major structural work is indicated in the information provided.
