This ground-floor, two-bedroom apartment in Lacemaker Court offers accessible retirement living with on-site care and communal amenities. Completed in 2015, the apartment feels contemporary and benefits from an open-plan lounge/kitchen, a wet room with underfloor heating, and direct access to landscaped communal gardens beside the canal. It is sold as a 75% shared ownership with no upward chain, making it straightforward to purchase for eligible buyers aged 55 and over.
The development provides a strong support offer: 24-hour on-site management, a residents’ restaurant and lounge, hairdresser, laundry facilities and landscaped courtyards. Off-street parking and scooter parking are available, and the location is a short walk to Long Eaton town centre, transport links and local shops. The apartment’s gas central heating, double glazing and integrated kitchen appliances add to the practical appeal.
Important practical points are stated plainly. The sale is on a leasehold basis with about 113 years remaining and a substantial annual service charge (approximately £5,400 / £450 pcm) which covers building insurance, window cleaning and communal services. Broadband speeds are slow in the area, and local recorded crime levels are higher than average — factors to consider for lifestyle and security. The property suits a purchaser seeking low‑maintenance, supported retirement accommodation rather than a private detached home.
Overall this is a convenient, accessible retirement apartment with communal social and care facilities close to town amenities. The shared-ownership tenure and higher service charge reduce entry barriers but increase ongoing costs; an internal inspection is recommended to appreciate the layout, condition and communal provision fully.
