Spacious one-bedroom apartment in Sycamore Court, offered chain-free and set within a well-regarded retirement complex close to Wickford town centre and station. The first-floor flat feels bright and private, with a large bedroom (13'8" x 10'5") with fitted wardrobes, a lounge/diner, separate kitchen and useful walk-in storage—helpful for mobility aids. Communal facilities include a residents' lounge, laundry room, well-kept gardens and on-site parking. An emergency alarm system is fitted and the property has an EPC rating of C.
This is a good option for downsizers seeking convenience and community: shops, amenities and public transport are a short walk away, and the development's gardeners maintain attractive communal grounds. Electric storage heaters provide heating and the property benefits from double glazing (install date unknown). The apartment is relatively large for a one-bedroom retirement flat at approximately 850 sq ft overall.
Important practical notes: the flat is leasehold with 62 years remaining. Some lenders may refuse mortgages on short leases—buyers should obtain early mortgage advice. Service charge and ground rent apply (service charge approx. 1,904 p.a.; ground rent 280 p.a.). Heating is electric storage, so running costs can be higher than gas alternatives. Prospective purchasers should check lease details and service charge accounts before committing.
Offered chain-free, this flat suits a retired buyer seeking an active community setting with town-centre convenience, or a buyer prepared to manage the lease-length implications.
