The living room opens to communal gardens, there is off-street parking, and local shops and bus routes are within easy walking distance.
Internally the flat is compact (approximately 346 sq ft) but practical: a generous bedroom with fitted wardrobes, a fitted kitchen with integrated oven and induction hob, and a bathroom with shower. Double glazing and electric storage heaters are fitted; the specification is comfortable rather than high-end and appears ready to move into with only minor cosmetic updating likely required.
Important practical points: this is a leasehold retirement property with 88 years remaining, an annual service charge of about £1,900 and ground rent of £104.22. Electric storage heating can be more expensive to run than gas systems, so factor running costs into your budget. The development is managed and includes communal gardens and parking, which suits buyers wanting security and low garden maintenance.
Overall this flat offers straightforward, ground-floor retirement living in a quiet, comfortable neighbourhood. It will suit downsizers who prioritise convenience, a secure managed setting and proximity to local amenities, provided they are comfortable with the remaining lease length, service charge and electric heating arrangement.
