Summary - 17 ORCHARD LEA SAWBRIDGEWORTH CM21 0AB
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Comfortable over-55s apartment with onsite support and scenic grounds.
Two-bedroom first-floor apartment with views over communal grounds
Set within the peaceful, landscaped grounds of Orchard Lea Retirement Village, this rarely available two-bedroom first-floor apartment offers comfortable, low-maintenance living for the over-55s. The home is well presented with bright living space, double glazing and electric underfloor heating, and benefits from attractive views over the communal gardens across the estate’s extensive 20-acre setting.
Residents enjoy a comprehensive monthly service charge that covers external maintenance, window cleaning, gardening, building insurance, water rates, and one three-course meal per resident if required. A 24-hour emergency call facility and a “good neighbour check” provide additional reassurance, and further assistance can be arranged through onsite support. The property sits adjacent to The Rivers private hospital and specialist nursing centre.
This apartment is leasehold and compact at approximately 614 sq ft, making it best suited to downsizers seeking ease of upkeep rather than large-family living. The development’s leisure amenities and community centre create social opportunities, while nearby Sawbridgeworth offers shops, pubs and transport links. Buyers should note the ongoing service charge and the electric main fuel system when assessing running costs.
Overall, the property will appeal to someone seeking secure, sociable retirement living in a scenic, affluent location with onsite support and communal facilities. It offers straightforward move-in condition with potential to personalise internal finishes over time.
