Summary - Flat 13, Archers Court, Elmside Walk SG5 1HB
1 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Low-maintenance first-floor retirement flat with communal facilities and parking.
Purpose-built one-bedroom retirement flat, approx. 349 sq ft
A compact, purpose-built one-bedroom retirement apartment in Archers Court offering low-maintenance living close to Hitchin town centre. The flat enjoys a reassuring communal environment with a manager, 24-hour assistance and alarm pull cords for added safety. Residents benefit from on-site amenities including a communal lounge with kitchen, restaurant and coffee shop, plus landscaped gardens and off-street parking.
The apartment is small (approximately 349 sq ft) but well laid out: a fully fitted kitchen with washer/dryer, a wet room adapted for mobility and built-in bedroom wardrobes. It faces open playing fields to the rear, providing a quiet, pleasant outlook. Mobile signal is excellent and the EPC has been recorded as C; broadband speeds are average.
Important practical points: the property is sold leasehold (about 108 years remaining) and will be sold at auction. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, and the accommodation is compact — best suited to single occupancy or a couple downsizing. Local area services are plentiful, but recorded local crime is very high, which buyers should consider when assessing security and comfort.
This apartment will suit someone seeking a social, assisted-living setting with on-site facilities and easy access to town amenities, who accepts the compact scale and the tenure/auction sale terms. It presents a straightforward, low-maintenance retirement option with scope for personal updating rather than major structural work.
