A freshly modernised two-bedroom sheltered bungalow close to South Woodham Ferrers town centre, ideal for an over‑55 buyer seeking low-maintenance living. The interior has been refurbished to a high standard with a new kitchen, contemporary shower room and replacement PVCu double glazing. A private patio and well-kept communal gardens provide outdoor space without the up‑keep of a private garden.
The development offers practical on‑site support: residents’ lounge, care-line in each bungalow, an estate manager available weekdays and residents‑only parking. The home is offered chain free and will be granted a new 99‑year lease on completion; ground rent is a peppercorn and the service charge is £190.19 pcm (approx. £2,282pa).
Important points to note: this is a small, leasehold retirement property for the over‑55s and the local area records higher crime levels than average. Estate manager hours are limited to weekdays 9am–1pm and appliances/fittings have not been independently tested. Buyers should factor the service charge and leasehold tenure into their budget and surveyor checks.
Overall, this bungalow suits a downsizer who wants a ready‑to‑move‑into retirement home with communal support and town‑centre convenience, while accepting the responsibilities and constraints of leasehold sheltered housing.
