Important cost and eligibility details are straightforward: purchasers must be 70 or over, the property is leasehold with a very long lease (around 990 years), ground rent is £495 pa and the service charge is high at £13,330.92 pa (covers staffing, communal services, maintenance and the on-site restaurant). There is a parking permit scheme subject to availability and a separate permit fee, so allocated parking is not guaranteed.
Location benefits include fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, landscaped communal grounds and proximity to shops, parks and transport links into Northampton. Note the wider area records higher crime levels and greater deprivation than average; buyers should weigh these local factors alongside the convenience and on-site support the development provides.
