This well-proportioned first-floor apartment on the Shotover View development offers low‑maintenance, modern living for the over‑55s. The bright open-plan reception room, private indoor balcony and generous principal bedroom with wet room create comfortable, sociable spaces ideal for downsizing without compromise.
Practical features include off-street parking, communal gardens and on-site communal facilities, plus a service package covering gas, electricity, water usage and a 24/7 emergency pull-cord system. The property is offered with no onward chain and a long lease (125 years from 2011, c.111 years remaining), easing a swift move.
Buyers should note this is a 75% shared ownership sale: a buyer purchases the 75% share and pays a proportionate rent on the remaining share. A monthly service charge covers core services and care facilities; prospective purchasers should review the exact charge and any eligibility restrictions tied to shared ownership and over‑55 residency.
The building was constructed post‑2012, has double glazing and is heated via a community scheme. These modern installations reduce immediate maintenance but also mean some utilities and heating are managed communally—buyers should check the terms of the community heating and any implications for future costs or alterations.
