Summary - 46 MALVERN AVENUE URMSTON MANCHESTER M41 5PL
1 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Low-maintenance living with communal gardens and residents parking.
Ground-floor flat with private entrance and bay-front living room
A well-presented ground-floor retirement flat arranged for the over-55s, offering low-maintenance living close to local amenities and Trafford General. The apartment has its own entrance, a bay-fronted lounge/dining room, a double bedroom, fitted kitchen and a modern shower room. Gas central heating (Worcester combi) and UPVC double glazing are already in place, reducing immediate upkeep.
The development sits in neat communal grounds with residents' off-street parking and pleasant outlooks. The flat is offered chain free and presented in good decorative order, making it suitable for someone looking to downsize into a manageable, single-level home with communal support features (Tunstall pull-cord system installed).
Important practical notes: this is a shared-ownership leasehold (50% share) with about 67 years remaining on the lease. A weekly service charge of £21.45 and a weekly rent on the retained share of £24.59 apply. The limited lease length could restrict mortgage options—many lenders may refuse applications unless the lease is extended. Buyers should verify financing, service charge arrangements and any scheme rules before committing.
Overall this flat suits a downsizer or retiree who values a small, low-upkeep home close to healthcare and local services, and who is comfortable with shared-ownership tenure and the associated ongoing charges and lease considerations.
