Summary - Flat 12, Homefarris House SP7 8AU
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free one-bedroom in central Shaftesbury with private access to shared green space.
Chain-free one-bedroom ground-floor apartment with communal garden access
A well-located one-bedroom ground-floor apartment in central Shaftesbury, designed for age-restricted living (60+). The property offers direct access to well-managed communal gardens and is offered chain-free, making it easy to move into a low-maintenance retirement setting. The living room receives good natural light and the bedroom includes built-in storage.
Practical highlights include a recently fitted bathroom with a walk-in shower, a compact but functional kitchen with freestanding appliances, double glazing, and very low council tax. The development is part of a small post‑war block set close to shops, cafés and local amenities and benefits from excellent mobile and fast broadband speeds.
Important cautions: the lease has 57 years remaining, which is likely to restrict mortgage options and may make lending difficult or impossible for some buyers. Service charges and ground rent are relatively high for the size of the flat, and heating is electric room heaters rather than a central system — this may affect running costs and comfort.
This apartment will suit a buyer seeking straightforward, community-focused retirement living who accepts the lease and service‑charge profile. It could also appeal to a cash buyer or investor aware of the lease implications; the flat is small, practical and ready to occupy, but buyers should obtain mortgage and legal advice about the remaining lease term before committing.
