This one-bedroom first-floor apartment in a purpose-built retirement development offers low-maintenance city living close to shops, healthcare and regular buses. Built in 2022, the home feels modern and secure, with a private west-facing balcony overlooking the landscaped courtyard and easy lift access to communal facilities.
Social amenities include a chef-run bistro, homeowners’ lounge and wellbeing suite, creating opportunities to meet neighbours without leaving home. Practical features include a separate fully fitted kitchen with integrated Beko appliances, an 8kg washer-dryer in the utility cupboard, and a large walk-in wardrobe in the bedroom for generous storage.
Safety and support are built in: 24/7 emergency call systems, pull switches and intruder alarms, plus on-site staff. Tailored domestic support and personal care are available, and the service charge includes one hour of cleaning per week and communal maintenance such as gardening.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold retirement property (999-year lease) with electric room heaters — electricity will be the main fuel and can affect running costs compared with gas heating. The development sits in a busy city neighbourhood with a higher local crime rate, so prospective purchasers should consider personal security and lifestyle preferences alongside the convenience and communal benefits offered here.
