A first‑floor, two-bedroom retirement apartment in Hathaway Court, a McCarthy & Stone development within easy walking distance of Stratford-upon-Avon town centre and the train station. The apartment offers a large lounge with electric fire, a compact modern kitchen, two double bedrooms with built-in storage, and a bathroom with shower. Communal facilities include a residents’ lounge, laundry room, well-kept gardens, lift access and a 24-hour emergency response system with CCTV.
This leasehold property is being sold with no onward chain and has 107 years remaining on the lease. Heating is via electric storage heaters and main fuel is electricity. The development is age-restricted (residents must be 60+ or one partner 60+ and the other 55+), making it suited to downsizers or retirees seeking low‑maintenance living close to local amenities.
Practical considerations: ground rent is listed at £495 (average), council tax is above average for the area, and broadband speeds are average. The property is in a city centre setting with excellent mobile signal but an area-recorded very high crime level; buyers should factor local safety measures and insurance costs into their decision. Some internal elements and services (appliances, electrics) are unverified and may need inspection or updating.
Overall, this apartment will suit a buyer seeking convenient, communal retirement living near Stratford’s shops and transport links. It presents immediate move-in potential but also typical leasehold and electric-heating trade-offs to consider before purchase.
