Secure one-bedroom retirement apartment with communal facilities and parking, ideal for downsizers..
Purpose-built retirement apartment for residents aged 60+
Set within the McCarthy & Stone Bishops Court retirement development, this one-bedroom first-floor apartment offers secure, low-maintenance living for over-60s. The property benefits from generous communal facilities including a residents’ lounge, guest suite, laundry room, on-site Development Manager, 24-hour emergency call system and landscaped communal gardens. Off-street residents’ parking and a lift to all floors add practical convenience.
The apartment is a comfortable, average-sized 556 sq ft home with a light lounge framed by large windows and French doors, a practical kitchen, one bedroom with storage and a bathroom. Double glazing and electric storage heaters provide basic thermal comfort; however, electric heating may carry higher running costs compared with gas. The first-floor position gives garden views and easy access without stairs.
Important ownership details: the lease has approximately 96 years remaining; ground rent is £775.46 pa and the service charge is £3,949.04 pa. These ongoing costs are material and should be factored into affordability calculations. The development is purpose-built for retirement living and a minimum age of 60 applies on purchase.
Location strengths include excellent mobile signal, fast broadband and proximity to local shops, transport and amenities. Note the wider area records higher crime levels; prospective buyers should consider local safety and visit at different times. Overall, this apartment suits downsizers seeking a secure, social retirement setting with on-site support and communal facilities, while accepting higher service costs and electric heating.
