Summary - FLAT 30, BOUGHTON HALL, FILKINS LANE CH3 5BG
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Low-maintenance village living with 24-hour on-site support and communal gardens.
One-bedroom retirement apartment with Juliette balcony
This one-bedroom retirement apartment sits within Boughton Hall, a purpose-built village set in four and a half acres of conserved grounds just under a mile from Chester city centre. The apartment offers a generously proportioned lounge/diner with French doors and Juliette balcony, a fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, a spacious bedroom with floor-to-ceiling wardrobes, and a walk-in shower in the bathroom. Carpets, curtains, blinds, light fittings and most furniture are included, making it ready to move into.
Boughton Hall is aimed at over-60s seeking security and on-site support: 24-hour staffed cover, CCTV, controlled door entry, an emergency call system and 1.5 hours per week domestic help are included in the service provision. Residents benefit from extensive, well-maintained communal gardens, parking, patio areas, walkways and a community vegetable garden, plus a daily concierge service.
Important costs and lease details are clear and material. The apartment is leasehold with an annual service charge of £7,914.96 and ground rent of £350 per year (doubling every 25 years). A deferred development payment of 3–5% of the selling price and a sales administration fee of 1.8% apply on disposal. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than a communal system, and broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow.
EPC B (82) reflects good energy performance for an all-electric property. This home will suit a buyer prioritising security, communal life and low-maintenance living who understands the ongoing service and event fees tied to retirement-village tenure.
