A tidy, purpose-built retirement flat in a peaceful over-55s development close to local amenities and transport links. The layout offers a bright sitting/dining room with bay window, two bedrooms and a separate kitchen — low-maintenance living in a compact 605 sq ft footprint.
Practical positives include off-street parking, communal gardens, double glazing and reliable local broadband and mobile signals. The building dates from the late 1990s and presents well externally, making this a straightforward home for downsizers wanting convenience and low upkeep.
Important buyer notes: the property is leasehold with 62 years remaining. Many mortgage lenders may refuse lending at this lease length, so purchasers should confirm finance options early. The service charge (£3,756.72 pa) and ground rent (£365.54 pa) are payable, and heating is by electric storage heaters — bear in mind running costs and limited heating flexibility.
Chain-free and offered for sale at a modest price, this flat will suit cash buyers, downsizers seeking simple, secure accommodation, or investors aware of lease and lender implications. Internal redecoration or updating may be required to match individual tastes; there is no private garden and outside space is communal only.
