Summary - Flat 35 Mill Court, Mortimers Lane, Fair Oak SO50 7PG
2 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Well‑appointed retirement apartment with parking and communal facilities.
Residents must be over 55 (active retirement community)
A bright two-bedroom retirement apartment in Mill Court, set within well-tended communal gardens and a friendly over‑55s community. The layout centres on a long, naturally lit sitting room that opens to a compact, modern kitchen. Fitted wardrobes in the principal bedroom, emergency pull cords throughout and lift access add practical convenience for downsizers.
Communal facilities are a strong feature: an on-site house manager, residents’ lounge, laundry room and private off‑street parking all support independent living. The block is double‑glazed (installed before 2002) and benefits from maintained grounds and a resident contingency fund included in the service charge.
Notable costs and constraints are set out plainly. Heating is by electric storage/ panel heaters and the main fuel is electricity — running costs can be higher than gas. A maintenance/service charge of about £2,000 per year applies; buyers must verify exact outgoings and any ground rent with solicitors. The apartment is modest in overall size and has a compact kitchen, so it suits buyers prioritising low‑maintenance living over large internal space.
This freehold retirement flat is best for active retirees or downsizers seeking a sociable block with on‑site support and well‑kept communal areas. Verify building and service details with your solicitor and consider heating costs when budgeting for ongoing running expenses.
