A well-presented ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in Horton Mill Court, designed for over-70s who value convenience and community. The spacious living room opens onto a private patio and garden area, while the modern fitted kitchen includes integrated appliances for low-maintenance living. The generous bedroom and level-access wet room suit residents seeking comfortable, accessible accommodation.
Horton Mill Court is a Retirement Living PLUS development with 24-hour on-site staffing, an estates manager, a table-service restaurant, homeowners’ lounge, guest suite and communal facilities that make daily life easier and more sociable. One hour of domestic assistance per week is included in the service charge; additional personal care packages are available at extra cost.
Practical considerations are important: the property is leasehold (about 114–115 years remaining), with an annual service charge of £9,416.88 and ground rent of £435. Service charges cover communal services and the emergency call system but are relatively high and will affect running costs. The area has a medium flood risk and a very high local crime rating, which prospective buyers should factor into their decision.
This apartment suits downsizers or retirees who prioritise on-site support, social amenities and low-maintenance living, and who are comfortable with the ongoing service charge and leasehold arrangements. Viewing is recommended to assess the layout, patio access and communal facilities in person.
