A purpose-built, first-floor one-bedroom apartment in a managed over‑55s block, presented in clean, move‑in condition. The home offers an open-plan lounge/diner with a compact fitted kitchen, a double bedroom with built-in wardrobe and a tiled shower room. Neutral décor, modern kitchen units and large windows give a bright, low‑maintenance interior.
Communal benefits include social areas, an extensive lawned garden with paved seating, a laundry room, and lift access — practical features for someone seeking convenience and a sociable retirement setting. Excellent mobile signal and fast broadband support staying connected for family and services.
Important leasehold detail: approximately 59 years remain on the lease. This could restrict mortgage options and may deter buyers needing lender finance. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the area has a high crime statistic; buyers should consider ongoing running costs, security and potential lender requirements.
Offered at a low price point with very cheap council tax, this apartment suits a downsizer or cash buyer wanting a quiet, low‑maintenance retirement base close to local amenities. It is best for someone who values communal facilities and gardens but understands the lease length and communal living trade-offs.
