Low-maintenance single-storey living with communal facilities and warden support.
Chain-free two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow in retirement development
This chain-free, two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow sits within the Town Green retirement development, designed for over-55s and set in landscaped communal gardens. The property offers practical, single-storey living with a living room that opens to a small patio and shared garden—ideal for someone who wants low-maintenance outdoor space and easy access to on-site facilities.
The bungalow benefits from daytime on-site warden cover, an emergency pull-cord system in rooms, and a guest suite for visiting family. Heating is by electric storage heaters and all windows are double-glazed; the accommodation is compact at around 559 sq ft and suits buyers looking to downsize rather than accommodate large households.
There are important lease and running-cost considerations: 85 years remain on the lease (requires renewing sooner rather than later), an annual service charge of £2,611.96 and ground rent of £262.18. The interior is dated in places — notably the 1980s-style kitchen — so buyers should expect some modernisation work to refresh fixtures and finishes.
Overall this property is a straightforward, low-upkeep retirement option with useful communal amenities and good local connectivity. It will particularly suit buyers seeking a secure, manageable home with potential to modernise over time, but be aware of the limited lease term and ongoing service costs.
