Compact over-55s apartment near shops and transport, suited to cash buyers.
Chain-free probate sale, immediate vacant possession
This compact one-bedroom first-floor retirement apartment sits in an established over-55s complex on the northern edge of Clacton town centre. The flat is chain-free and offered as a probate sale, making it a straightforward purchase for a buyer who can proceed without mortgage reliance. Communal features include a residents' lounge, communal parking and a 24-hour alarm cord system.
Internally the apartment is modest in size (approximately 410 sq ft) with a 10'6" bedroom, 12'9" lounge and fitted kitchen. Double glazing and electric storage heating are fitted. The property is convenient for local shops and bus routes and benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband in the area.
Important practical issues: the lease has 63 years remaining, which is likely to restrict mortgage lending and may deter some buyers. Annual service charge is high (around £3,012 / £251 pcm) and the property is sold via probate. The area has above-average crime statistics and is classified as very deprived, facts that should be weighed against the low asking price and easy town access.
This apartment will suit an over-55s buyer able to purchase without a standard mortgage, or an investor prepared to accept lease extension costs and service charges. Viewings are recommended for anyone seeking a low-maintenance, centrally located retirement base with immediate availability.
