Carefree central living with communal facilities and parking for downsizers.
Ground-floor one-bedroom retirement flat with private patio access
This ground-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment in central Watford offers practical, low-maintenance living for over-60s seeking convenience and community. The flat opens to a sizeable reception room, a double bedroom with fitted wardrobes, and private access to well-kept communal gardens and a patio — ideal for relaxing without outdoor upkeep.
Residents benefit from on-site facilities including a communal lounge, laundry room and warden support, plus secure residents’ parking. The building is modern and well maintained, and the flat’s compact, traditional layout is straightforward to personalise or adapt with minimal disruption.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold (approximately 96 years remaining) and uses electric storage heating; running costs can be higher than gas-heated homes. The kitchen is small and dated, so replacement or refurbishment would improve practicality and appeal. The area reports very high crime levels, so prospective purchasers should research local safety measures and consider additional security.
Overall, this apartment is well suited to downsizers or those seeking a cared-for, central location with communal support and easy access to town amenities. It offers ready-made retirement living with clear potential to update the kitchen and personalise the interior to taste.
