- Service charge approx £2,460 per year (£205 pcm)

This two-bedroom retirement apartment in Cleaver Court suits over-60s seeking low-maintenance, independent living close to transport and local amenities. The building offers warden control, lift access and communal support tailored to older residents.
Inside, the layout is traditional with a lounge/diner, refitted kitchen, shower room and a good-sized master bedroom plus a single second room for guests or a study. At 478 sq ft the apartment is compact and will suit downsizers wanting manageable space rather than large-family living.
Buyers should note practical drawbacks: the development charges a service fee of about £2,460 per year (£205 pcm), the lease has 89 years remaining, and some internal areas show dated 1980s styling that will need updating to taste. The property sits in a city area with high recorded crime levels, which may concern some purchasers.
Overall this is a sensible, affordable option for someone looking to downsize into a supported retirement setting with excellent transport links, fast broadband and strong local services. It offers immediate occupation potential but may benefit from cosmetic modernisation to maximise comfort and future value.
