Important lease details affect marketability: the lease has 60 years remaining. Many high-street mortgage lenders refuse to lend on leases of this length, so buyers should be prepared to pay cash or seek specialist lending. Annual costs include a service charge of approximately £3,207.88 and ground rent of £326.00, which buyers must factor into affordability calculations.
Overall this is a practical, well-positioned retirement apartment for someone seeking independent, low-maintenance living close to Heathfield town centre. It suits a downsizer or purchaser who can manage or work around lease limitations and ongoing service charges.
