This ground-floor one-bedroom flat in Bellair House is designed for easy retirement living and is offered end of chain. The accommodation is compact (approx. 390 sq ft) and practical, with a fitted kitchen, fitted bedroom furniture and a recently refreshed shower room. Double glazing and a lift to all floors add convenience.
The development offers communal benefits aimed at older residents: laundry room, residents’ coffee lounge, landscaped communal gardens and off-street parking. The property is leasehold with an annual service charge of £2,633.22 and council tax in Band B, and it sits within a self-sufficient retirement area with good local amenities and fast broadband.
Important practical points: heating is electric (room heaters), so running costs may be higher than gas-heated homes. The flat is small and best suited to a single occupant or couple seeking low-maintenance living rather than more space. The local area scores as more deprived with above-average crime statistics, which should be considered alongside the property’s retirement-focused benefits.
Overall, this is a convenient, low-upkeep ground-floor flat for someone over 55 seeking an independent retirement base with communal support and easy access. Buyers wanting larger living areas, gas heating, or a quieter neighbourhood may prefer to look elsewhere.
