This well-presented one-bedroom retirement apartment sits on the first floor of Windsor House, a purpose-built McCarthy & Stone development designed for over-75s. The apartment offers comfortable, low-maintenance living with a lounge opening to a Juliet balcony, a fully fitted kitchen, a double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and a large shower room with level-access facilities — all within about 646 sq ft of accommodation.
Windsor House provides on-site support and communal amenities that suit independent retirees who want help on hand: an Estates Manager, 24-hour emergency call system, one hour of domestic assistance included weekly, an on-site table-service restaurant, communal lounge, laundry, scooter store and landscaped grounds. There is a car parking permit scheme (allocated subject to availability) and a bus stop directly outside the development for easy local travel.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold with approximately 113 years remaining, a ground rent of £435 pa (next review 2028) and a substantial annual service charge of £8,945.44 which covers the estate management, communal heating and 24-hour call system. Heating is by electric storage heaters and broadband speeds in the area are reported slow. These factors are important when budgeting alongside the affordable council tax band.
Ideal for a purchaser seeking a secure, sociable retirement setting rather than a self-contained family home, this apartment combines on-site care options and communal facilities with a low-maintenance living footprint. Viewings will suit buyers prioritising support, accessibility and a convenient Abbeydale Road location.
