Summary - 67 Townsend Court, High Street South, RUSHDEN NN10 0FR
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Managed, sociable living with strong onsite support and garden views.
Third-floor one-bedroom apartment, approximately 624 sq ft
A well-presented third-floor one-bedroom apartment within Townsend Court, a McCarthy & Stone retirement living plus development set in Rushden town centre. The apartment offers a bright dual-aspect lounge, fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, double bedroom with built-in wardrobe and an accessible wet room — arranged across approximately 624 sq ft of accommodation. Full fibre broadband and good mobile signal make staying connected simple.
The development is purpose-built for over-60s and is strongly geared to low-maintenance living: 24-hour on-site staffing, an Estates Manager, emergency pull-cord system, an on-site bistro/table service restaurant, homeowners’ lounge, conservatory and landscaped communal gardens. A guest suite is available for visitors and homeowners receive one hour of domestic assistance each week as part of the service charge.
Important practical points are clear: the annual service charge is high at £8,041.59 and ground rent is £748 per year. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than a communal system, and parking is unallocated on a first-come, first-served basis. The local area is described as having higher crime levels and wider area deprivation, so buyers should consider local safety and amenity factors alongside the convenience of town-centre living and close bus links.
This apartment suits a buyer seeking a managed, sociable retirement setting with strong onsite support and low internal upkeep. It offers ease of living and communal amenities, but carries significant service and ground rent costs and uses electric heating, which are important when budgeting.
