This one-bedroom retirement apartment in the heart of Guildford puts shops, cafés and the High Street on your doorstep. Designed for over-60s living, the block offers secure entry, 24-hour emergency call facilities and a social lounge that hosts regular events — ideal for someone seeking companionship and convenience.
The flat is bright with a medium-sized living/dining room, a fitted kitchen, a double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and a contemporary shower room. Residents benefit from a well-kept communal garden and off-street parking, plus excellent mobile reception and easy access to transport links.
Practical details to note: the lease has 89 years remaining, the property uses electric storage heaters (metered electricity costs may be higher), and the annual service charge and ground rent are substantial. The area’s recorded crime level is very high, which may be a concern for some buyers despite the building’s security features.
This apartment suits downsizers or retirees who prioritise central location, social communal facilities and low-maintenance living. The accommodation is well-presented but offers straightforward potential for light modernisation to reflect personal taste.
