This second-floor one-bedroom apartment at Kenton Lodge is built for comfortable retirement living. The open-plan lounge and fitted kitchen face the communal gardens, and the sale can include furniture for a move-in-ready option. Residents benefit from on-site support: an Estate Manager, 24-hour emergency call system and a CQC-registered care team available for tailored packages.
The development offers practical communal amenities including a homeowners’ lounge, restaurant, guest suite, laundry room and landscaped grounds. Transport is convenient with a bus stop directly outside and fast full‑fibre broadband already connected. The apartment’s electric underfloor heating and modern wet-room shower give low-maintenance, accessible living.
Important practical points: this is leasehold retirement accommodation with 990 years remaining and an annual ground rent of £435. The substantial service charge (£10,716.53 for the year to 30/09/2026) covers many communal services and 1 hour of domestic assistance weekly but makes ownership relatively costly. Parking is by permit and subject to availability.
This home suits a buyer seeking secure, purpose-built assisted living in Gosforth who values on-site care options and communal facilities. Be aware of higher running costs and local area indicators such as a higher crime score and local deprivation when comparing options.
