This spacious two-bedroom second-floor apartment in Brook Court is designed for independent over-65s who value community, convenience and low-maintenance living. Arranged around a practical hallway with plentiful storage, the build includes a bright lounge/dining room with a Juliet balcony, a newly fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, and a recently refitted bathroom with a level-access shower for accessibility. The apartment benefits from a long lease (978 years) and is offered chain free for an easier move.
Brook Court is a purpose-built retirement development with a duty manager on site 24/7, an emergency call system, lift access to all floors and a busy social programme including an on-site subsidised restaurant. Residents have access to landscaped communal gardens, a hobbies room, guest suite and gated parking. The boiler has been recently replaced and the property has double glazing and an EPC B rating.
Important practical points: the property carries a high annual service charge (£9,230.76) and an annual ground rent (£449.10). The local area reports higher crime levels and pockets of deprivation; there is also a medium flooding risk. These factors affect running costs, insurance and local amenity perceptions and should be considered alongside the clear benefits of on-site support and accessible living.
Overall, this apartment is best suited to buyers over 65 seeking a sociable, low-maintenance home with on-site services and long lease security. It offers immediate move-in potential with accessible features and communal facilities, but comes with above-average service charges and location-based considerations that will influence ongoing costs and lifestyle choices.
