Close to Elizabeth Line with communal gardens and gated parking.
Chain-free one-bedroom ground-floor retirement flat for over-65s only
This ground-floor one-bedroom flat is offered chain-free and designed exclusively for residents aged 65 and over. The apartment provides practical retirement living with a large reception room, double bedroom with fitted wardrobes, separate kitchen and bathroom, plus direct access from the gated car park through French patio doors.
Residents benefit from maintained communal gardens, shared lounge areas and a 24-hour emergency response call system. The building is modern (constructed 2003–2006), has double glazing and gas central heating to radiators. Gidea Park Elizabeth Line station is approximately 0.4 miles away, giving straightforward links into central London.
Important costs and tenure details: the lease has 98 years remaining, ground rent is £330 per year and the service charge is £2,795 per year. The property sits in a very affluent area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, but local crime statistics are high — potential buyers should consider security and local factors.
The flat’s interior is clean but dated in places and would benefit from updating to suit personal taste. This is a practical, low-maintenance retirement home with good transport links and communal support, suited to someone seeking convenience and on-site assistance rather than a renovation project.
