2 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Generous second-floor flat with parking and communal gardens, ideal for comfortable downsizing.
Two double bedrooms and a large reception room (approx. 1,045 sq ft)
Quietly situated on the second floor of a well-regarded McCarthy & Stone development, this spacious two-bedroom retirement apartment offers generous living space and practical communal facilities. At around 1,045 sq ft the flat feels larger than many retirement properties, with two double bedrooms, a substantial reception room suitable for lounge and dining, and ample built-in storage.
Residents benefit from off-street parking, a maintained communal garden and an on-site communal lounge — useful for socialising without leaving the building. The home has double glazing and electric storage heating; mobile signal and broadband are strong, and there is no flood risk. The development dates from the early 1990s and retains some period Tudor-style character externally.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold retirement property with 98 years remaining and an annual service charge of £4,800 plus ground rent of £660. Heating is electric storage radiators rather than gas, which can affect running costs. The sale will proceed via online auction/secure sale under conditional terms and is offered chain free.
This apartment will suit buyers looking to downsize into a social retirement setting with generous internal space and easy access to local amenities in Caterham on the Hill. It also presents potential for cosmetic improvement to reflect personal taste.
