Ground-floor two-bedroom retirement apartment with long lease and communal facilities.
South-facing living room with patio doors to communal gardens
This bright ground-floor retirement apartment sits in a popular position of Old School Close, with a south-facing living room and patio doors overlooking well-kept communal gardens. The layout includes two bedrooms, a refitted shower room/WC and a kitchen with updated oven and hob — arranged for easy, single-level living.
Practical features include double glazing, electric heating, satellite TV, residents’ parking and on-site communal facilities such as a residents’ lounge, conservatory and site manager. The lease has been extended to approximately 181 years, providing long-term security for buyers.
Notable positives are the quiet, small-town setting, easy access to local shops and services, low local crime and excellent mobile signal. Drawbacks to consider: the overall property size is small (about 590 sq ft), heating is electric (potentially higher running costs), and broadband speeds are only average. The apartment is suited to retirees or downsizers seeking low-maintenance, ground-floor accommodation with communal support.
