This two-bedroom first-floor maisonette in West End is designed for over-60s seeking a low-maintenance, community-focused home. Rooms are naturally bright with a generous lounge/diner, fitted kitchen and two bedrooms with built-in storage. The development offers practical on-site support including an on-site manager, assistance pull cords and a communal laundry room.
Outside, residents benefit from a well-kept communal garden and off-street residential parking — useful for visitors and occasional drivers. The property is compact at about 582 sq ft, so it suits downsizers looking to simplify rather than those needing large storage or entertainment spaces.
Important practical points: heating is by electric storage heaters and the glazing date is unknown, so running costs and warmth may be higher than gas-heated homes. The lease has approximately 63 years remaining; this is a material issue as some mortgage lenders may refuse lending on shorter leases and additional lease-extension costs can be significant.
Overall, the maisonette offers comfortable, secure retirement living with communal facilities and local amenities nearby. It will suit a buyer prioritising convenience, community support and manageable upkeep, but budget-conscious purchasers should allow for potential energy costs and investigate lease/finance implications before committing.
