Summary - 42, HOLMCROFT COURT, CHARLTON ROAD BA4 5FA
2 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Comfortable two-bedroom retirement flat with lift access and communal facilities.
South-facing balcony with communal garden views
A bright, second-floor retirement apartment with a private south-facing balcony overlooking well-kept communal gardens. The sitting/dining room and two double bedrooms deliver straightforward, comfortable accommodation for those looking to downsize without losing living space. Built in 2012, the development includes a lift, residents’ lounge, laundry, hobby room and a bookable guest suite.
Practical features include electric underfloor heating throughout, a fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, a fully tiled bathroom with separate shower cubicle, and useful built-in storage including an airing cupboard and mirrored wardrobes. The property sits within easy reach of Shepton Mallet town centre and local bus routes, with permit parking on site subject to availability.
Important practical notes: the apartment is leasehold with 112 years remaining, an annual service charge of approximately £2,765.61 and ground rent of £495 pa (review due January 2027). Broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow, and parking is by permit rather than allocated space.
Overall this is a low-maintenance, well-equipped retirement flat offering secure, sociable communal living and outside space. Buyers seeking a modern, manageable home close to local shops and services will find it a sensible, comfortable option; those reliant on fast broadband or needing guaranteed parking should confirm suitability before viewing.
