This ground-floor, two-bedroom retirement apartment in Lincoln Court offers practical, low-maintenance living for over-55s. The spacious 20ft lounge/diner opens onto a private patio and well-kept communal gardens, creating an easy indoor-outdoor flow and pleasant social spaces. An on-site warden, Appello emergency response and communal lounge support independent living and peace of mind.
The layout is traditional and straightforward: separate kitchen, two bedrooms and a shower room. Parking for residents and visitors is available and the property benefits from fast part-fibre broadband and an EPC rating of C. Electric storage heaters provide heating and the building was constructed in the 1980s, with cavity-filled walls and double glazing noted in the block.
Important lease information may affect buyers: only 63 years remain on the lease. This is likely to restrict mortgage lenders and could require either a cash purchase or a lease extension—factor this into affordability and financing plans. The service charge is £292.23 pcm (£3,506.76 pa), which covers communal maintenance and ground rent and is reviewed annually.
Offered with no forward chain, this home suits downsizers seeking a secure, communal retirement setting with low garden upkeep. It will particularly appeal to buyers able to manage the short lease issue or those prepared to explore lease-extension options.
