Compact, low-maintenance flat with balcony and communal gardens close to town amenities.
Over-55s first-floor apartment with lift access
A neat two-bedroom first-floor apartment in an over-55s development, ideal for buyers looking to downsize without losing town-centre convenience. The lounge/diner opens onto a balcony with pleasant views over well-kept communal gardens and the river, giving a sense of space and calm despite the compact overall footprint.
Practical features include a lift to the first floor, resident parking, a communal lounge and beautiful riverside grounds. The flat sits on a long lease (999 years from 1982, c.958 years remaining) and is sold with no forward chain. The service charge is £902 per quarter (around £3,608 per year) which covers communal maintenance, communal electricity, buildings insurance and management.
Energy performance is strong (EPC B/85) but heating is by electric storage heaters, which can affect running costs compared with gas. The property is leasehold; there is no ground rent because purchasers become part-owners of the freehold company and receive director status — lease and management arrangements should be checked with your solicitor.
This apartment is compact (approximately 587 sq ft) and suits someone seeking low-maintenance living close to St Ives amenities and the Guided Busway for links to Huntingdon and Cambridge. Note the published local crime level is high; prospective buyers should assess neighbourhood suitability in person.
