Compact one-bedroom retirement flat in Nascot Village — renovate to personalise within communal gardens..
Ground-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment (60+ occupancy)
Set within the established Nascot Village retirement development, this ground-floor one-bedroom apartment offers peaceful communal living for residents aged 60 and over. The apartment enjoys direct access to well-kept communal gardens, a residents’ lounge, communal laundry, guest room for visitors and off-street parking — practical features for independent retirement living.
The apartment is small (approximately 340 sq ft) and requires full renovation and modernisation, offering scope to reconfigure and update finishes, services and energy efficiency. The building is a traditional Victorian brick construction with solid walls (likely no internal insulation) and an existing gas boiler and radiators. EPC currently rated D.
Practical advantages include an on-call scheme manager, 24/7 emergency support, an active communal social space and plentiful green grounds for daily strolls. Tenure is leasehold with 98 years remaining and council tax band C (affordable band). The location is convenient—close to Watford town centre and local amenities, with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband.
Known drawbacks: the flat is small, needs renovation throughout, and the property’s solid brick walls suggest limited insulation without refurbishment. Buyers should factor renovation costs, leasehold management arrangements and a retirement-only occupancy restriction (60+).
