A compact, well-presented one-bedroom apartment designed for over-55s, set within a tidy Tudor-style development close to Chislehurst High Street. The flat sits to the rear of the building overlooking communal grounds and benefits from communal facilities including a lounge/games room, laundry and conservatory — useful social and practical spaces for retirement living.
Internally the layout is traditional and efficient: a large double-aspect living room, fitted kitchen, bedroom, bathroom and plentiful built-in storage with loft access. The apartment is chain-free and offered in excellent decorative order, making it move-in ready for a single occupant or couple looking to downsize.
Practical points to note: the property is compact at around 419 sq ft, so living space is limited. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be more expensive than gas central heating. The block was constructed in the 1980s and has double glazing added after 2002.
Location strengths include easy access to Chislehurst High Street, frequent local bus connections and well-regarded nearby schools. Mobile signal is excellent; broadband speeds are average. Tenure is share of freehold and the apartment is listed as retirement housing for residents aged 55+.
