Situated on the second floor of a purpose-built retirement development, this two-bedroom flat offers secure, low-maintenance living with 24-hour warden and care-line support. The layout includes two double bedrooms (one with en-suite), a separate living room, and a practical kitchen — a rare two-bedroom arrangement within this scheme that suits visitors or live-in carers.
Windows face south and the building sits near the West Cliff and cricket ground, offering pleasant coastal walks and easy access to the parade of shops. Communal facilities include a lounge, laundry, guest suite, lifts, communal gardens and on-site parking (first-come, first-served), which add convenience and social opportunities for residents.
Practical points to note: the flat is leasehold (125 years remaining) and restricted to older residents (minimum ages apply). Heating is by electric night storage heaters and the décor and fittings are broadly dated, so buyers should allow for some updating. Service charge and ground rent are notable ongoing costs and should be reviewed before purchase.
This apartment will suit buyers seeking independent retirement living with on-site support, easy access to town and coastline, and communal social facilities. It also offers potential for modest cosmetic improvement to personalise the space.
