Summary - Royce House, Hedda Drive, Hampton Hargate, PE7 PE7 8GY
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free, accessible flat near shops and transport, ideal for downsizers.
Purpose-built over-60s development with lift access
A second-floor apartment in a purpose-built over-60s development offering low-hassle retirement living close to local amenities. The flat has two double bedrooms, an airy lounge/dining room with a Juliette balcony, and lift access to all floors for easy mobility.
The apartment benefits from emergency alarm pull cords in every room and communal facilities including a lounge, kitchen, laundry room and a bookable family room for overnight visitors. Off-street parking and a communal garden add outdoor space and convenience. The property is offered chain-free and has 106 years remaining on the lease.
Buyers should note ongoing costs and maintenance responsibilities: the annual service charge is relatively high (£5,192 pa) and ground rent is payable (£230 pa). The seller’s description highlights a modern integrated kitchen with appliances, but supplementary notes indicate parts of the building and some fittings may be dated and could benefit from updating. The surrounding area has higher crime levels than average, which may concern some purchasers.
This flat suits downsizers seeking accessible, community-focused retirement accommodation within easy walking distance of the Serpentine Shopping Centre and bus routes. It offers immediate occupancy with straightforward purchase potential, balanced by service costs and some maintenance/modernisation considerations.
