Summary - MELTON COURT, 37 FLAT 81 LINDSAY ROAD BRANKSOME POOLE BH13 6BH
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Secure, social retirement living near shops and train links.
Two double bedrooms and dual-aspect lounge/diner
This two-bedroom retirement apartment at Melton Court offers practical, secure living for those aged over 65. Set within well-kept communal gardens and a managed development, the flat includes a dual-aspect lounge/diner, two double bedrooms and an unusually large four-piece bathroom with wet-room style shower. The building provides lift access, 24-hour warden call, an on-site not-for-profit restaurant and regular social events — useful for owners who want independence plus supportive services.
The accommodation is neutrally presented with double glazing and gas central heating; its 818 sq ft layout suits downsizers wanting generous room sizes without stairs. Practical extras include off-street residents and visitor parking, a summerhouse and a laundry/guest suite on site. The location is convenient — under 200 metres from a Tesco and close to Branksome station, shops and bus links.
Buyers should note the material running costs: an annual service charge of £8,704.92 (about £725.41 pcm) and an expensive council tax band. These charges fund extensive on-site staffing and communal services but are higher than typical apartment costs. There is also an above-average local crime rate to consider when comparing nearby options.
The property is offered chain free with roughly 97–98 years remaining on the lease and is exclusively for over-65s. It presents as a low-maintenance, community-orientated home that may suit purchasers seeking companionship, convenience and accessible living — though buyers must weigh the premium service charge against the benefits provided.
