This one-bedroom assisted-living apartment in Somers Brook Court offers comfortable, low-maintenance living for over-70s. The bright, upper-ground home faces south-west, benefiting from generous natural light and a Juliet balcony that overlooks the communal gardens. The accommodation includes a spacious living/dining room, modern fitted kitchen, double bedroom with built-in wardrobe and a contemporary bathroom.
Purpose-built for independent retirement living, the development provides 24-hour on-site staffing, an emergency call system and lift access to all floors. Residents also have access to a table-service restaurant, homeowners’ lounge, function room and a guest suite for visiting family — helpful features for social life and peace of mind. The apartment has electric underfloor heating and double glazing throughout.
Practical considerations: the property is leasehold, so buyers should review service charges and the lease length. Broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow, and local crime levels are above average. The site sits in a medium flood-risk area and the building dates from the late 1970s/early 1980s, so prospective buyers should consider insurance and long-term maintenance plans.
Convenience is a strength: Somers Brook Court is a short walk from Newport town centre, with shops and a Sainsbury’s opposite the development. This apartment suits a buyer seeking an assisted-living setting with on-site support, easy access to local amenities and communal social facilities, provided they are comfortable with leasehold ownership and the area’s specific practical issues.
