This first-floor, two-bedroom apartment at Oakmere offers a compact, low-maintenance retirement home with pleasant park views from the lounge and both bedrooms. The open-plan lounge/diner, Juliet balcony and modern fitted kitchen create a bright, practical living space suited to downsizing and independent living. The walk-in wet room and lift access within the development support accessibility needs.
The property is sold as 50% shared ownership and is leasehold; purchasers will need to consider the ongoing lease terms, service charges linked to the community heating and communal facilities, and any staircasing costs to increase ownership share. The building is modern (post-2007) with double glazing and communal gardens, but the apartment is small at approximately 603 sq ft.
Oakmere Retirement Living provides a supportive community with organised activities and on-site facilities that reduce isolation and encourage social life. Practical positives include excellent mobile signal, fast broadband, very low council tax and on-site parking; pets are allowed. Be aware the wider area is classified as higher deprivation/hampered aspiration and buyers should check local services and safety perceptions for themselves.
Chain free and offered for sale at £82,500 (50% share), this apartment suits someone seeking a secure, sociable retirement base with modest running costs, rather than a large family home or a no-commitment investment. Inspect lease details and service charge arrangements before proceeding.
