A well-proportioned ground-floor retirement flat set within the peaceful Fairacres Close development, ideal for over-55s seeking low-maintenance living close to local amenities. The living/dining room benefits from large windows with open views and fills the space with natural light, while two good-sized bedrooms — including built-in storage in the principal — provide comfortable sleeping accommodation.
The separate kitchen and modern bathroom are practical for everyday use. Outside, landscaped communal gardens and a private garage add convenience and outdoor space without the upkeep of a private garden. The development sits near shops, healthcare facilities and green spaces, with excellent mobile signal and straightforward transport links for the area.
Practical considerations: the property is leasehold with 88 years remaining and an average service charge of about £3,302 per year. Heating is via electric storage heaters and broadband speeds are slow, which may affect streaming or home working. Crime in the immediate area is above average — viewings will help assess personal comfort with the locality.
This home suits someone looking to downsize into a comfortable, well-kept retirement setting with low outdoor maintenance and handy local services. It offers easy living and potential to personalise interiors, while buyers should budget for ongoing service charges and consider heating and connectivity limitations.
