Bright one-bedroom retirement flat overlooking communal gardens, chain free and lift accessible.
Second-floor retirement flat with lift access and communal sitting room
This bright one-bedroom retirement apartment in central Saffron Walden offers easy, low-effort living for downsizers. Recently redecorated with new carpets and bathroom flooring, the second-floor flat looks onto well-kept communal gardens and benefits from lift access, communal sitting room and plentiful parking.
The layout is practical: a sizeable living room with garden views, a compact kitchen with integrated oven and electric hob, a double bedroom and a walk-in shower room. The development includes a resident house manager and 24-hour emergency alarm cords in each room, adding reassurance for independent retirees.
Practical costs and lease details are straightforward but important. The property is leasehold with 94 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £3,138 and ground rent of £514. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the kitchen fittings show some 1980s styling, which the new owner may wish to update.
Chain-free sale and a town-centre location within a short walk of shops, Waitrose and local amenities make this apartment an attractive move for someone seeking a manageable home close to services. Note the development’s above-average local crime statistic and reliance on electricity for heating when comparing running costs and personal safety needs.
