A bright, second-floor retirement apartment in Ridings Court, offered chain free and designed for over-60s living. Large lounge/diner opens to a Juliet balcony with pleasant communal garden views; the double bedroom has built-in wardrobes and the fitted kitchen includes integrated appliances. Lift access, resident parking and communal facilities add practical everyday convenience.

Reigate town centre is a short distance away, while nearby schools and amenities demonstrate the area’s established, comfortable neighbourhood.
Practical costs and tenure are important: the flat is leasehold with 108 years remaining, an average service charge of £2,650 pa and ground rent around £425 pa. Broadband is average; heating is gas boiler and radiators and windows are double glazed (pre-2002). These points will matter to buyers budgeting for ongoing charges and future maintenance.
Overall this apartment suits a downsizer or retiree wanting independence with on-site support and communal social space. It requires no major structural works noted, but prospective buyers should verify service arrangements, appliance condition and lease details before committing.
