A compact, self-contained two-bedroom first-floor apartment in a well-established over-55s development, located within easy walking distance of Barnard Castle town centre and its amenities. The building is maintained by Anchor Trust, with secure entry, telephone access and emergency pull cords in every room for added peace of mind.
The flat offers low-maintenance living with double glazing and electric storage heaters. Off-street parking and well-kept communal gardens add convenience and outdoor space without the upkeep of a private garden. The lease has around 115 years remaining and council tax is described as affordable.
Practical considerations include the small overall size (approximately 449 sq ft) and electric storage heating, which can be more costly than gas central heating. There is a service charge for communal maintenance and management; prospective buyers should check the current amount. The local area has above-average crime and higher deprivation indicators compared with wider regions, although the property benefits from proximity to shops, healthcare and highly rated local schools nearby.
