Practical extras include an owners’ private car park, a guest suite on-site (and access to guest suites at other Churchill Living developments), and communal services covered by the service charge.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with about 116 years remaining; the annual service charge is £3,588.66 and ground rent is £760.94 (review due November 2029). These costs cover air-source heating, building maintenance, utilities in communal areas, lift and garden upkeep, and the Careline system. At least one owner must be 60 or over (second owner 55+).
This apartment suits a retiree or downsizer seeking a secure, sociable setting near amenities and transport links. It offers comfortable, ready-to-live-in accommodation but carries ongoing communal costs and leasehold obligations that buyers should factor into affordability and long-term plans.
