Compact one-bedroom retirement flat with sea views and on-site support; short lease limits mortgage options.
Stunning seafront views from the apartment
A compact one-bedroom retirement apartment positioned on Holland Road with direct sea views and a calm coastal feel. The flat sits in a purpose-built development with lift access, communal lounge, laundry, patio overlooking the estuary and a duty manager plus Careline emergency pull cords — practical features for independent retirees.
The accommodation is efficiently arranged: a good-size lounge/diner, fitted kitchen and three-piece shower room. New windows have recently been fitted and double glazing is in place. Residents benefit from communal gardens and off-street parking offered on a first-come, first-served basis.
Important practical points are clear: the lease has approximately 59 years remaining which will restrict mortgage availability and may deter some buyers. Service charge and ground rent are notable (£3,288pa and £433pa respectively). Heating is by electric storage heaters, and the property is compact at about 430 sq ft — ideal for downsizers but limited for those needing extra space.
This property suits a retired buyer seeking seaside access, on-site support and social communal facilities, and who can purchase outright or through lenders comfortable with the short lease. It is offered with no onward chain and presents straightforward, low-maintenance living by the seafront.
