Long lease, communal gardens and parking close to Shenfield station.
First-floor retirement flat for over‑60s, no onward chain
A compact first-floor retirement flat arranged for over‑60s, offered with no onward chain and a long lease (998 years). The apartment includes a separate lounge, one bedroom, small modern kitchen and bathroom, plus stairlift access and a security entry phone — practical features for easier everyday living.
Residents benefit from well‑kept communal gardens, a communal lounge, laundry room, house manager and off‑street residents’ parking. The sale includes a 1/10th share of the freehold, providing long-term tenure stability uncommon at this price point.
Notable considerations: the internal living area is modest (approximately 421 sq ft) and the annual service charge is relatively high at £4,600. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the area records above‑average crime, so prospective buyers should factor running costs and local safety into their decision.
This property will suit a retiree or downsizer seeking low‑maintenance accommodation close to Shenfield Broadway and the station, with communal support and secure parking. It represents straightforward, long-lease ownership with clear benefits for someone prioritising convenience over large internal space.
