A well-located one-bedroom retirement apartment on the second floor of a McCarthy & Stone development, just off Epsom High Street. The flat offers a large living room, separate kitchen and fitted bedroom wardrobes, all within a popular over-60s scheme with an on-site warden, lift access and a 24‑hour emergency pull-cord system.
Residents benefit from extensive communal facilities including a large lounge, laundry, guest suite, and beautiful communal gardens. Regular social activities are organised onsite and the building sits within moments of shops, the station, GP services and nearby parks — ideal for buyers seeking low‑maintenance, town‑centre living with good transport links.
Notable running costs and specifications are provided: the property is leasehold with 102 years remaining, an annual service charge of £3,454.04 and ground rent of £365. The flat uses electric storage heaters, which can increase heating bills compared with gas central heating. There is visitors parking and residents can purchase a permit (circa £50 pa).
Practical positives include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, and a modern 2003 build with double glazing. Considerations: the development records above‑average local crime levels, the relatively short remaining lease compared with new builds, and the reliance on electric heating. Overall this apartment suits someone over 60 seeking convenience, communal support and a social retirement setting close to town amenities.
