This second-floor one-bedroom apartment in Moores Court offers a ready-made retirement setting built by McCarthy & Stone. The block includes communal lounge, landscaped gardens, laundry, guest suite, on-site parking and a 24-hour care line with a House Manager — useful for buyers seeking support and community.
The flat is well maintained with double glazing, an updated walk-in shower and electric storage heating. At about 473 sq ft the layout is traditional: entrance hall, lounge-diner, kitchen, bedroom and shower room — straightforward and low-maintenance for everyday living.
Purchase options are a key feature: the Home for Life Lifetime Lease (for over-60s only) shows a guide price of £52,000, with the full market price listed at £77,500. The Lifetime Lease can include purchase of up to 50% of the property value to protect capital; actual price depends on age and circumstances. This can suit buyers wanting to reduce upfront cost while safeguarding part of the value.
Important facts and concerns are clear: the sale is subject to probate, the area records very high crime and high flood risk, and annual service charge/ground rent are around £3,300 each (about £275 pcm each), which is high and will materially affect running costs. Heating is by electric storage heaters and tenure is leasehold with 104 years remaining — buyers should verify all lease terms and consult a solicitor before committing.
