Quiet, low-maintenance second-floor apartment within an active over-60s development, offered with no onward chain. The building provides an on-site house manager, 24-hour emergency assistance, communal lounge and sun room, laundry, guest suite and non-allocated resident parking — useful for visitors and short stays.
The flat has a practical one-bedroom layout with a 17ft lounge, compact kitchen and wet-room style shower room. Double-glazed windows, built-in bedroom wardrobes and a lift to all floors add everyday convenience for older buyers or downsizers seeking easier living.
Important points to note: the lease has around 63 years remaining, which may restrict mortgage availability and affect price. The service charge is relatively high at about £2,928 per year. The interior is dated and would benefit from updating if a more modern finish is required. The area records higher-than-average crime levels, which some buyers may wish to consider alongside the secure communal entry and intercom.
This property suits someone over 60 wanting a manageable home with communal support and facilities, who accepts a smaller footprint and potential lender limitations. It offers immediate occupation with minimal garden or maintenance responsibility, but buyers should factor in lease length, service costs and refurbishment needs.
