This ground-floor retirement apartment in New Forge Place offers single-level, low-maintenance living just moments from Redbourn High Street and the Village Common.

Broadband speeds are very slow in the area, which may affect streaming or home-working needs. There is no flood risk and the property was constructed in the 1980s; glazing is double glazed though the install date is unknown.
Overall, this tidy, ground-floor retirement flat will appeal to downsizers who prioritise village amenities, on-site support and communal facilities. Buyers should factor in leasehold arrangements, the electric heating system and limited broadband when assessing suitability.
