The sun room opens onto a decked seating area and communal lawn, creating a pleasant outdoor spot for morning sun or evening relaxation. Allocated off-street parking adds convenience in this central Buxton location, within easy walking distance of the Opera House, Pavilion Gardens and town centre amenities.
Practical details are favourable: a long lease (977 years), combi gas boiler with radiators, double glazing installed post-2002 and chain-free sale. Buyers should note the property is leasehold with a service charge of approximately £1,440pa and a small ground rent of £150pa. The building is classified as communal retirement accommodation and benefits from communal access and lift.
Material points to consider: the building’s original sandstone walls are assumed uninsulated, which may affect energy efficiency and could prompt future improvement works. The area records above-average crime statistics for the district, so prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves on local safety and security measures. Overall, this is a comfortable, characterful apartment well-suited to those seeking a low-maintenance, centrally located home with long-term ownership security.
