Immaculate one-bedroom retirement flat with communal facilities and close amenities.
Purpose-built over-55s retirement apartment
An immaculate one-bedroom first-floor apartment within a purpose-built over-55s retirement community in Christchurch. The open-plan living/dining room floods with light through large windows and a Juliet balcony; the modern fitted kitchen and breakfast bar suit easy, low-maintenance living. The generous bedroom includes fitted wardrobes and the bathroom offers a walk-in power shower and contemporary sanitaryware.
Residents benefit from well-maintained communal facilities: landscaped gardens, a homeowners' lounge, an on-site coffee area and a guest suite available to hire for visitors. The development is located in a comfortable suburban neighbourhood with excellent local amenities on the doorstep — pharmacy, doctors and bus links are all within a short walk, and Christchurch station provides wider rail connections.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold (119 years remaining) with an average service charge of £2,484 per year and communal heating provided via a community scheme. The flat’s 595 sq ft footprint offers manageable space for downsizers, but buyers should factor ongoing service charges and any communal rules associated with retirement living into their budget and lifestyle choices.
This apartment suits someone seeking a sociable, low-upkeep retirement base close to town facilities and transport. It presents immediate move-in readiness with scope to personalise finishes over time, while the long lease length supports resale or mortgageability.
