Comfortable, low-maintenance living ideal for retiring couples.
Ground-floor two-bed apartment in over-55s development
Allocated garage plus communal parking for convenience
Communal lounge, laundry and guest bedroom included
Well-kept communal gardens; no private garden space
Compact 592 sq ft footprint — efficient but limited space
Kitchen and carpets dated; light modernisation advised
Electric storage heating — consider running cost implications
Leasehold (approx. 950 years), Council Tax Band B, EPC C
This ground-floor, two-bedroom apartment sits within a popular over-55s development on Whiteacre Lane and offers a low-maintenance home for retirees or downsizers. The flat is neatly presented throughout and benefits from direct external access, a generous reception room, and useful fitted storage in both bedrooms. Communal facilities include a residents’ lounge, laundry, guest bedroom, well-kept gardens, communal parking and an allocated garage — practical extras that ease everyday living.
The interior is traditionally finished and well cared for but shows signs of age; the kitchen and carpets are dated and would respond well to light modernisation. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which provide simple control but can be more costly than gas central heating — factor running costs into your budget. The property is leasehold with around 950 years remaining, Council Tax Band B and an EPC rating of C.
At about 592 sq ft the flat is compact and efficient: the reception room is a stand-out space for relaxing or entertaining, while the absence of a private garden means outdoor enjoyment is communal only. With excellent mobile and fast broadband in a very affluent village setting, the flat suits buyers seeking convenience, community and low-exertion living rather than expansive internal space.
Overall this is a practical retirement home or buy-to-let opportunity in a sought-after, well-managed development. It’s move-in ready for someone happy with traditional finishes, and offers straightforward potential to add value through modernising the kitchen and flooring.
