A smart, purpose-built retirement apartment on Radwinter Road, offered chain free and ready to occupy. The well-regarded Saffron Lodge development (built 2014) provides a bright double bedroom, separate kitchen, and a comfortable sitting/dining room — all laid out for easy, low-maintenance living.
Residents benefit from genuine communal conveniences: a residents’ lounge, laundry, well-being suite, guest suite, house manager, communal gardens, mobility scooter store with charging point, and off-street parking. Lift access serves the upper floors, making this second-floor apartment straightforward to reach despite being above ground level.
Practical ownership details are clear: this is a leasehold retirement apartment (minimum age 55) with 113–114 years remaining. The property uses a community electricity/heating scheme and has double glazing throughout, helping with warmth and noise control.
Buyers should note the running costs. The annual service charge (£3,894) and ground rent (£653.04 p.a.) are material ongoing costs and reflect the extensive communal services provided. The property suits someone seeking a secure, low-maintenance base near Saffron Walden town centre, rather than a low-cost or hands-off investment.
