A compact, ground-floor retirement apartment in the heart of Chester, offered chain-free and ready to move into. The south-facing living room leads to a small balcony that brings in natural light, and a recently fitted walk-in shower improves accessibility. The development provides communal facilities and weekday management for peace of mind.
Sized at approximately 405 sq ft, this one-bedroom flat suits someone seeking low-maintenance city-centre living rather than large living spaces. The kitchen is dated and may benefit from updating; heating is via electric storage heaters, which can lead to higher running costs compared with gas. The development was built in the early 1990s and has double glazing.
Service arrangements include an average service charge of £2,400 and annual ground rent of £355. The apartment sits within a leasehold with around 99 years remaining. The surrounding area is a cosmopolitan, student-oriented neighbourhood close to shops, transport and amenities — convenient yet busier than suburban retirement locations.
Overall, this is a rare opportunity to own a purpose-built over-60s city-centre apartment offering security, communal support and easy access to Chester’s services, but buyers should factor in running costs, leasehold charges and potential kitchen renovation costs.
