Low-maintenance two-bedroom retirement flat with excellent communal facilities and roof terrace.
First-floor retirement apartment, 753 sq ft, two bedrooms
A low‑maintenance two-bedroom retirement apartment in Wheatley Place, Shirley, designed for comfortable, sociable living. The first-floor, 753 sq ft apartment offers modern finishes, good natural light and a useful roof terrace and landscaped communal gardens for relaxed evenings with friends.
The development is built to contemporary standards (constructed 2019) with mobility and safety in mind: 24/7 onsite manager, 24/7 call system, extra safety features and an on-site chef-run bistro, communal lounge, private dining room and wellness suite. Regular classes and social clubs make this a good choice for someone seeking an active, community-focused retirement setting.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold (997 years remaining) and uses electric room heaters rather than gas central heating. There is one bathroom and modest internal space consistent with the apartment’s 753 sq ft size. Crime levels in the area are above average, and council tax is moderate. These factors should be weighed alongside the strong communal amenities and low maintenance living.
Suitable for downsizers who value social facilities, safety features and a turnkey retirement lifestyle, this apartment will suit buyers who prefer modern, managed communal living over a large private garden or traditional house setup.
