A bright, purpose-built one-bedroom apartment in Edward House offers low-maintenance, secure retirement living in central Hertford. The third-floor home faces south-west, flooding the living area and balcony with afternoon sun — ideal for relaxed afternoons and easy entertaining. The contemporary kitchen, underfloor heating and fast full-fibre broadband make daily life comfortable and modern.
Residents benefit from 24-hour on-site staffing, a bistro restaurant, landscaped gardens, guest suite and mobility scooter charging — services designed for convenience and sociable living. The service package includes one hour of domestic assistance per week and an estate manager, giving peace of mind and practical support when needed.
Important practical points: the apartment is leasehold (long lease), with an annual service charge of £10,436.84 and ground rent of £435. These cover many communal running costs and staff but are above typical levels and should be reviewed against personal budgets and any entitlement to support. The property is pet friendly and includes an off-street parking space, but prospective buyers should confirm parking allocation and any additional costs.
This apartment will suit someone over 70 seeking a sociable, low-maintenance home in a very convenient Hertford location. It represents a move toward lifestyle and convenience rather than a conventional family house; buyers should weigh the high service charge and communal living structure against the extensive on-site amenities and security.
