Summary - PAXTON COURT FLAT 12 MARVELS LANE LONDON SE12 9QQ
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Secure, low-maintenance one-bedroom retirement flat with communal gardens and gated parking.
Chain-free lower-ground retirement flat for ages 60+
A chain-free lower-ground, one-bedroom retirement flat in Paxton Court, offered for those aged 60+. The apartment opens to a generous reception/dining room with direct access to well-kept communal gardens, plus a fitted kitchen, a double bedroom and a shower suite. On-site features include a 24-hour Careline system, visitor camera entry and a communal residents’ lounge and laundry.
Practical advantages include gated parking with security entry, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, plus nearby shops, bus routes and strong local schools. The property is presented as average-sized at around 548 sq ft and sits in a well-regarded development close to transport links serving SE12.
Important considerations: the flat is lower-ground so natural light is more limited than upper-floor homes. It is leasehold with 98 years remaining and has an annual service charge of approximately £2,543.16 and a ground rent of £646.22. The sale is subject to probate. The wider local area shows higher deprivation levels, which may affect resale perception.
This flat will suit a buyer seeking secure, low-maintenance retirement living with communal support and garden access, and who is comfortable with ongoing service charges and ground rent. Investors should note the retirement age restriction and probate sale when assessing the purchase.
