A well-presented first-floor retirement apartment set in mature communal grounds, just yards from Uckfield High Street. The one-bedroom flat offers bright living space, a separate kitchen, allocated off-street parking and private pedestrian access to the town centre — handy for shops, cafes and the nearby train station. It is offered with no onward chain and includes 24-hour emergency pull-cord care assistance, making it move-in ready for an over-55 resident seeking convenience and community.
The flat sits in a peaceful cul-de-sac and benefits from pleasant communal gardens that give a village-like feel. Interior rooms are functional and bright but generally dated in style, so there’s potential to personalise or modernise the accommodation to taste. The building was constructed in the early 1990s and has double glazing and gas central heating via boiler and radiators.
Buyers should note material considerations: the lease has around 66 years remaining which may affect mortgage availability, and the service charge of £4,440 per year is above average. The immediate area records higher crime levels, which may concern some purchasers despite the quiet location and communal setting. Prospective buyers and their solicitors must verify lease terms, service arrangements and lender acceptance prior to committing.
Overall, this compact retirement apartment will suit downsizers or over-55 buyers prioritising proximity to town amenities, easy access and a sociable communal setting. It represents straightforward, low-maintenance living with scope for cosmetic updating, provided buyers are aware of the lease and cost implications.
