Set within a well-kept retirement development in the heart of Altrincham, this bright two-bedroom first-floor apartment suits buyers seeking convenience and low‑maintenance living. The open-plan lounge-diner and a generous master with ensuite provide comfortable, flexible space for everyday life or entertaining visiting family. Lift access and an allocated space in a secure underground car park add practical ease.
Communal facilities are a key benefit: attractive wrap‑around gardens, a welcoming residents' lounge and routine external maintenance are covered by the service charge, helping reduce day-to-day chores. The apartment is a short walk from Altrincham town centre amenities and John Leigh Park, placing shops, cafes and healthcare within easy reach.
Practical considerations are straightforward and important to note. The property is leasehold (93 years remaining) with a relatively high service charge of £4,422.24 pa and a small ground rent. Heating is electric, delivered by room heaters and electric fittings, which may mean higher running costs compared with gas-heated homes. Council tax is band E and above average.
Offered chain free, this apartment will appeal to downsizers seeking a town-centre retirement base with parking, or to investors looking for a lettable, well-located apartment in a very affluent area. The building dates from 1992 and presents well, but buyers should factor in the lease length and ongoing service costs when assessing long-term value.
