Designed for those aged 60 and over, this one-bedroom apartment at Robert Adam Court offers low-maintenance, step-free living close to Alnwick town centre. The living room opens via French doors onto a private walk-out balcony overlooking well-kept communal gardens — a quiet spot for morning tea or watching the seasons change. The fitted kitchen, good-sized bedroom and modern shower room make the layout straightforward and easy to manage.
The development is purpose-built for retirement living with an on-site House Manager, 24-hour emergency call system, camera door entry and a homeowners’ lounge for socialising. Shared facilities include a guest suite, laundry room, lift to all floors and landscaped grounds; the service charge covers communal upkeep, building insurance and utilities to communal areas, simplifying household bills.
Practical points to note: the apartment is leasehold (around 110 years remaining), with an annual service charge of approximately £2,360 and a ground rent of £425. Heating is by electric storage heaters and individual electricity costs are not included. Parking is by permit and subject to availability and an additional annual fee may apply. The wider area records higher crime levels, which prospective buyers should consider alongside the on-site security features.
Overall this is a sensible choice for someone looking to downsize into a secure, sociable retirement community a short walk from shops, transport and local attractions. The apartment is presented as a comfortable, low-upkeep base with clear communal support, but buyers should factor ongoing service costs, ground rent and electric heating into their budget.
