A larger-style two-bedroom retirement apartment on the second floor of Talbot Court, designed for homeowners aged over 70. The flat is freshly decorated and well presented, with a spacious living/dining room, modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, a main double bedroom with walk-in wardrobe and a second bedroom currently used as a dressing room. Lifts serve all floors and there are attractive communal grounds and off-street parking (permit basis). The development is pet friendly and includes a homeowners’ lounge, bistro and guest suite for visitors.
This is part of McCarthy Stone’s Retirement Living PLUS range, offering 24-hour on-site staffing and an on-site CQC-registered care team. The service package includes one hour of domestic assistance per week, an emergency call system with bedroom and bathroom points, contingency funds and upkeep of communal areas and grounds. The communal provision and security are strong selling points for buyers wanting reassurance and optional care support.
Important financial and tenure facts: the property is leasehold with 114 years remaining, a substantial annual service charge (£13,013.57 for year ending 30/09/2025) and ground rent (£435 pa; review next due 01/06/2029). These running costs are significant and should be budgeted for alongside council tax, utilities and any additional care or domestic hours beyond the included allowance.
Overall, this apartment will suit downsizers seeking a secure, sociable and low‑maintenance lifestyle with optional care on site. It offers comfortable accommodation and strong communal facilities, but the high service charge and ongoing ground rent are material costs that may affect affordability for some buyers.
