A ground-floor, one-bedroom retirement flat in Homemanor House offering straightforward, low-maintenance living close to Watford High Street. The apartment is chain-free and benefits from lift access, resident parking, a communal lounge and an on-site development manager — practical features for independent over‑60s who value convenience and nearby amenities.
The interior comprises a hall, bright lounge, fitted kitchen, bedroom and bathroom with double glazing and electric storage heating. The location is strong for transport links (M1, M25, A41) and a short 0.3-mile walk to Watford High Street, putting shops, doctors and leisure facilities within easy reach.
Important practical considerations: the property is leasehold with 59 years remaining. This short lease may prevent many lenders from offering mortgages and will almost certainly affect resale value; buyer enquiries should include lease-extension costs and lender acceptability. The flat uses electric storage heaters and has double glazing installed before 2002 — budgeting for modernisation or energy upgrades may be advisable.
The development sits in an inner-city, cosmopolitan area with excellent mobile and broadband connectivity, but note the local crime level is reported as very high. For a buyer seeking a compact, manageable home near town amenities and transport, this flat offers convenience and community support, provided they accept leasehold implications and potential security considerations.
