Summary - 17 Llanthony Place, St. Ann Way, GLOUCESTER GL2 5GQ
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
First-floor, two-bed apartment with on-site care and waterside outlook.
Walk-out balcony with canal views
This well-presented two-bedroom retirement apartment sits on the first floor of a modern McCarthy & Stone development, quietly positioned beside the canal. A walk-out balcony captures the waterside outlook and brings natural light into the open-plan living/dining room. The large principal bedroom includes a walk-in wardrobe; the second bedroom works well as a guest room or hobby space.
Llanthony Place is designed for over-70s living and offers on-site staffing 24/7, a CQC-registered care team, and flexible care packages to arrange as needs change. Resident facilities include a homeowners’ lounge, bistro table service, function room, guest suite (fee), laundry and landscaped gardens — helpful for social life and peace of mind. Practical features include full-fibre broadband, allocated parking and a 10-year NHBC warranty on the development.
Buyers should note the running costs: an annual service charge of £12,763.44 is substantial and covers staffing, communal utilities, grounds maintenance and a contingency fund. Ground rent is £510 per year. Heating is by electric panel/room heaters, and there is a medium flood risk for the area. The property is leasehold (999 years from 2019) and purchase is restricted to owners aged 70 and over.
Overall this apartment will suit downsizers or retirees seeking a low-maintenance, social community with on-site support and attractive canal views. It is ready for immediate occupation with neutral decoration, though buyers who prefer lower running costs should factor in the service charge and electric heating when budgeting.
