Set within a purpose-built over-60s development, this chain-free ground-floor apartment offers comfortable, low-maintenance living with a private enclosed garden. The layout is open-plan and was the show home for the development, recently refurbished to a modern standard with integrated kitchen appliances and underfloor heating throughout.
Practical features geared to older residents include a 24-hour emergency call system, secure entry, illuminated switches, guest suite and a communal homeowners’ lounge. The main bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and en-suite; the living room opens onto the patio area, creating easy indoor–outdoor flow at ground level.
Running costs and tenure are straightforward: the long lease (circa 992 years) gives security, but note the above-average service charge of £4,343.64 per year (paid monthly) and a ground rent of £495 per year. The service charge does include underfloor heating, water usage, the emergency call system and buildings insurance.
Location strengths include easy access to local shops, transport links and several well-rated primary and secondary schools nearby. Buyers should be aware the area records higher-than-average crime levels and the apartment is heated by electricity via an air-source heat pump (electric tariff unspecified). Overall, this is a well-presented retirement apartment with strong convenience features and clear running costs to factor into the purchase decision.
