This second-floor, one-bedroom retirement apartment in Old Market Court offers low‑maintenance town‑centre living with a newly fitted kitchen and walk‑in shower. The development provides on-site support, a residents’ lounge, guest suites, laundry and a 24‑hour Appello emergency system — practical features for over‑55s seeking convenience and community.
The flat is well located for shops, a supermarket, doctors on the doorstep and riverside walks nearby. Lift access to all floors and nearby bus links and rail services make travel straightforward, while the 485 sq ft layout suits buyers wanting compact, manageable accommodation without a private garden.
Buyers should note material considerations: the lease has around 60–61 years remaining, which may prevent many mortgage lenders from lending. The property relies on electric room heaters (no central heating), and the service charge and ground rent are ongoing costs to factor into affordability.
Overall, this apartment suits an over‑55 purchaser prioritising central amenities, on‑site support and a recently renovated interior — provided they can accept the short lease term and running costs.
