A comfortable one-bedroom ground-floor apartment in Mellor Lodge, a purpose-built retirement development for the over-60s. The lounge opens directly onto well-kept communal gardens, providing easy outdoor access without steps. The apartment has a recently refitted kitchen, modern shower room and built-in storage, making it low-maintenance and move-in ready.
Practical elements include double glazing, electric storage heating and a consumer unit and boiler housed in the entrance cupboard. The building was constructed in 2007 and the flat sits within a compact, red-brick block close to Uttoxeter town centre and main transport links — convenient for shops, services and regular buses.
Notable costs and constraints are clear: the property is leasehold with 106 years remaining, a relatively high service charge (approx. £2,559.82 per year) and ground rent (approx. £658 per year). Heating is electric storage, which can be more expensive than gas, and local crime levels are described as high — factors to weigh against the apartment’s convenience and low-maintenance appeal.
This apartment will suit a downsizer or retiree seeking an easy-to-manage home with garden access and local amenities on the doorstep. It is offered chain-free, providing a straightforward purchase route, but buyers should confirm lease details, service charge cover and parking arrangements during conveyancing.
