A bright, ground-floor one-bedroom flat in an over-55s development offering easy single-level living and direct access to well-kept communal gardens. The reception room, conservatory and patio capture open views across nearby fields, creating a peaceful, retirement-friendly setting. UPVC double glazing and gas central heating provide year-round comfort, and resident parking and communal facilities support an active social lifestyle.
Practical features include a double bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe, an additional small room useful as an office or storage, a fitted kitchen with appliances, and a bathroom with a corner shower. The complex includes organised activities, laundry facilities, a community room, an assisted pull-cord system and daily warden check-ins — useful for buyers seeking reassurance and companionship.
Important lease and mortgage information: the property is leasehold with 64 years remaining. This remaining term is short enough that many mortgage lenders may refuse to lend, so buyers should seek specialist mortgage advice or be prepared to buy with cash. The service charge is £984 per year (noted as below average) and the EPC is rated C. There are no flood risks and local crime levels are very low.
This flat suits a buyer looking to downsize into a secure, social retirement community with low-maintenance, single-floor living and pleasant communal grounds. It also suits those who can fund a purchase without standard mortgage lending or who can access lease extension advice.
