Summary - KINGSMEAD COURT FLAT 9 THE OLDWAY CENTRE MONMOUTH NP25 3PT
Town-centre first-floor retirement apartment, ideal for independent living
Compact two-bedroom layout — total area approximately 386 sq ft
Modern kitchen with integrated hob and oven; larger-than-average shower cubicle
Gated resident parking and communal laundry; guest suite available
Long lease (circa 161 years) and share of freehold ownership
Service charge ~£1,519 pa includes water, gardening, window cleaning
Electric heating (night storage) and immersion heater — potentially higher running costs
Small overall size; best for downsizers or those needing low-maintenance home
This first-floor, two-bedroom retirement apartment in the heart of Monmouth offers low-maintenance, town-centre living with immediate access to shops, cafés and the bus station. The well-presented sitting room opens to a compact, modern kitchen and two practical bedrooms — the second bedroom can double as a study. Communal amenities include laundry facilities, a guest suite, and a pleasant communal garden with a raised pond by the riverbank.
Practical details that add value: the property is chain-free, comes with gated resident parking, and each resident owns a share of the freehold. The long lease (circa 161 years remaining) and service charge (approximately £1,519 pa) which covers water rates, gardening and window cleaning simplify ongoing management for an owner.
Be clear about material limitations: the apartment is small (about 386 sq ft) so it suits those seeking compact, independent living rather than large entertaining space. Heating is electric (night storage heaters and immersion) which can increase running costs compared with gas. Broadband speeds are average and the wider area scores as very deprived, although crime levels are very low.
Overall, this apartment will appeal to buyers aged 55+ wanting a central, low-upkeep home with communal support features and long lease security. It suits someone prioritising location, convenience and modest living space over large rooms or low-running-cost heating.
