A purpose-built two-bedroom first-floor apartment within Plaxton Court’s extra-care community, suited to over-55s seeking a low-maintenance, supported lifestyle. Built c.2008, the home offers level access, emergency call systems and communal amenities that include a restaurant, gym, hair salon and regular social activities.
The layout provides a separate living room, two bedrooms and a medium-sized kitchen in a compact 614 sq ft footprint — comfortable for a single occupant or couple but modest in scale. Properties are wheelchair-accessible and designed to accommodate aids and adaptations.
Buyers should note this is leasehold with 99 years granted on purchase and ongoing monthly charges for communal services and support. The development is CQC-registered for personal care; the supportive environment and on-site facilities suit those seeking independence with reassurance.
Practical positives include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, on-site parking and managed communal gardens. Downsides: higher local crime levels reported, regular service/support/management charges (see key points), and the property is within a managed community rather than offering a private garden or large external space.
