2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact, secure living close to town and green space for downsizers.
First-floor two-bedroom retirement apartment with cricket ground views
A purpose-built two-bedroom retirement apartment on the first floor of a well-managed McCarthy & Stone development, with pleasant views over the neighbouring cricket ground. The layout includes an entrance hall, lounge, kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom within a compact 595 sq ft footprint — ideal for downsizers seeking low-maintenance living close to Glossop town centre.
Residents benefit from wide communal facilities including a lounge, laundry, guest suite, landscaped garden with seating, and lift access to every floor. Safety features include a video door entry system, an on-site Development Manager and a 24-hour Appello emergency call system, offering reassurance for independent living.
Practical points to note: the property uses electric storage heaters and mains electricity (no communal gas), which can affect running costs. The lease is long (125 years from 2005, c.104–105 years remaining) but there are ongoing costs: a ground rent (approx. 460) and service charges, and event fees may apply. The apartment is age-restricted (minimum age 60, or one partner 60 and the other 55) which suits those seeking a retirement community.
Overall this apartment offers a compact, secure retirement home with good communal amenities and attractive green views. It is best for buyers prioritising convenience, community and manageable upkeep, and who are comfortable with electric heating and leasehold service charges.
