A well-presented, ground-floor two-bedroom retirement apartment in Hengist Court, offered chain-free and recently renovated for immediate occupation. The layout is practical: a spacious lounge, modern fitted kitchen and a luxury shower room make day-to-day living straightforward and low maintenance. The apartment benefits from a sought-after ground-floor position for easy access.
The development is purpose-built for older residents and includes on-site management, a 24-hour emergency careline, communal lounge, laundry facilities and well-maintained communal gardens — practical support for independent retirement living. Double glazing and neutral décor create a bright, calm interior ready to personalise.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with 88 years remaining and electric storage heating (not a community system), which can affect running costs. The wider area records very high crime rates and relative deprivation, factors to consider for personal security and resale. No flood risk is recorded.
This apartment will suit downsizers or buyers seeking low-maintenance retirement accommodation in town, or investors targeting a retirement-housing tenant. Its ground-floor position, communal services and recent refurbishment are clear positives; those wanting larger rooms or a full bathroom should note the modest overall size and single shower room.
