This well-presented first-floor one-bedroom apartment in Allington Court offers comfortable, move-in ready living within a private retirement scheme. The flat benefits from a newly fitted kitchen, modern bathroom, double glazing and fitted bedroom wardrobes, making daily life straightforward and low-maintenance. Overlooking the communal gardens, it offers a calm outlook and easy access to the building’s shared lounge and laundry.
Allington Court is a purpose-built retirement complex (built 1989) with an on-site house manager, care-line system and organised resident activities — features that support independent living and social connection. Local shops, bus routes and medical services are close by, while broadband and mobile signal are strong, useful for staying in touch and organising support when needed.
Practical points to note: the flat is leasehold (164 years remaining) and heated by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas alternatives. The apartment’s 463 sq ft footprint is average-sized for a one-bedroom and carpeted throughout; while presented well, future buyers who prioritise low running costs or alternative heating may wish to factor potential upgrades into their budget.
Overall, this retirement flat will suit someone seeking a well-maintained, sociable scheme with on-site support and a ready-to-live-in home. It offers clear advantages for downsizers who value convenience, communal amenities and a pleasant garden view, balanced against the typical considerations of electric heating and leasehold tenure.
