A well-presented two-bedroom first-floor apartment in an established over-60s development, this home offers low-effort living with a private balcony overlooking landscaped communal gardens and woodland beyond. The bright sitting room, fitted kitchen/dining area and two double bedrooms make it comfortable for everyday living or for visitors to stay. The apartment is offered with no forward chain and occupies an attractive, peaceful position within the grounds.
Residents benefit from extensive on-site facilities and services tailored for older people: 24-hour on-call care and pull alarms, a licensed restaurant and coffee shop, hair and beauty visits, a library, shop and social spaces. Routine maintenance tasks are handled by the onsite team, and communal life is supported by activities and booking options for functions.
Practical points to note: the apartment uses electric underfloor and ceiling heating and UPVC double glazing; this keeps maintenance straightforward but may increase running costs compared with gas-heated homes. The property is held on a long lease (125 years from 2006 — c.110 years remaining) and has a substantial service/maintenance charge (£940 pcm) which covers the wide-ranging communal services. Parking and visitor bays are available onsite.
This apartment will suit downsizers who value security, community facilities and low-maintenance living close to Chandler’s Ford amenities. Buyers who prioritise low service charges or gas central heating should factor those preferences into their decision.
