Guide price £100,000–£110,000. This top-floor, two-bedroom retirement apartment is exclusively for buyers aged 60 and over and sits in a sought-after, well-connected part of Newton Abbot. Large windows and an open-plan reception with a contemporary kitchen create a bright living space suited to downsizers who want low-maintenance living and social opportunities.
The flat has been adapted for accessibility: a recently fitted wet room, wheelchair-friendly circulation and electric opening doors make everyday life easier. Residents also benefit from a communal lounge, regular events and a laundry room, supporting independent living within an on-site community.
Important considerations: the property is leasehold with an average service charge of £2,100 and is heated by electric storage heaters, which can be costly. The apartment is small (about 588 sq ft) and located in an area with higher crime and deprivation indicators, which may affect resale and should be weighed against the flat’s social amenities and accessibility features.
This apartment will suit downsizers seeking a supportive retirement setting with close transport links and communal life, while buyers should budget for ongoing service charges and potentially higher heating costs.
