Peaceful community living with on-site restaurant and 24-hour emergency support.
First-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment with Juliet balcony
This one-bedroom retirement apartment on the first floor offers comfortable, independent living with built-in peace of mind. The bright living room opens to a Juliet balcony with far-reaching views over landscaped communal gardens backing onto Luckley Brook. The development provides extensive communal amenities including an in-house restaurant, homeowners’ lounge, laundry, guest suite, scooter store and a staffed estate manager.
Designed by a specialist retirement developer and built in 2014, the apartment has modern finishes: integrated kitchen appliances, triple-glazed doors and a contemporary bathroom with level-access shower. Safety features include a 24-hour emergency call system, camera door entry and an Estates Manager on site. An hour of domestic assistance per week is included in the service charge, with extra care packages available by arrangement.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold with approximately 113–115 years remaining; ground rent is £435 pa (review due 2028). The annual service charge is high at £9,565.87 and covers communal services, heating of communal areas, gardens and one hour of weekly domestic support. Parking is by permit with possible waiting lists and an annual permit charge (around £250). Broadband speeds are slow and the area has above-average crime and a medium flooding risk, which may influence insurance and lifestyle choices.
This apartment suits a buyer seeking sociable, supported retirement living close to Newport town centre and local shops. It offers easy access to on-site services and social activities but carries ongoing costs and practical limitations that are important to factor into affordability and long-term plans.
