Spacious, chain-free retirement flat with en-suite, parking and communal facilities.
Ground-floor retirement apartment, wheelchair accessible
A spacious, ground-floor retirement apartment in the McCarthy Stone community, this two-bedroom home is designed for comfortable, low-maintenance living. The large master bedroom includes an en-suite and walk-in wardrobe; a second double bedroom provides flexibility for visitors or a hobby room. A bright lounge opens to the communal garden, and the property benefits from one off-street parking space.
Practical features support independent living: wheelchair access, non-resident management staff, and a 24-hour careline alarm. The building is modern and well kept, with landscaped grounds and communal guest facilities for visiting friends or family. The EPC B rating and average-sized internal area (around 861 sq ft) suit downsizers who want a manageable, comfortable home in an affluent suburb.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold retirement property with an above-average service charge of £4,500 and a ground rent of £494. Heating is electric (room heaters), which may mean higher running costs than gas-heated homes. The sale is chain-free, which can simplify completion.
Overall, this apartment will suit those seeking a secure, sociable retirement setting with easy access to local amenities, good broadband and mobile signal, and low-stairs living. It offers ready-to-use accommodation with communal support in a very affluent area, but factor ongoing service charges and electric heating into your budget.
