Low-cost, single-storey retirement flat with village views and shared ownership..
Ground-floor one-bedroom flat ideal for single-storey living
A neat ground-floor one-bedroom flat in Mellor offering straightforward, single‑storey living for over‑55s. The reception room is generous with a bay window that brings light and pleasant views over the nearby churchyard. Communal gardens are maintained and the property feels quietly tucked into a prosperous village setting.
This is a shared‑ownership, leasehold retirement apartment with a low monthly service charge (£61) and very cheap Band A council tax — strong cost-of-living advantages at an entry price of £62,500. Heating is gas‑fired with a recently installed boiler and double glazing, and the EPC is a practical C.
Practical points to note: the compact kitchen has dated appliances and would benefit from updating, and parking is on‑street only. The layout is conventional and well suited to a single occupant or couple seeking low‑maintenance, ground‑floor accommodation with easy access to local amenities and commuter routes.
Overall this flat is a cost-effective option for downsizers or those seeking retirement living in a friendly village. Shared ownership limits full equity but reduces the upfront purchase cost, making this a sensible move-in-ready base with modest refurbishment potential.
