Supportive, low-maintenance living close to shops and transport links.
One-bedroom retirement apartment in good decorative order
A well-presented one-bedroom retirement apartment offering low-maintenance, independent living in Kingswood Court on Chingford Mount Road. The apartment is in good decorative order, with a bright lounge, double bedroom and a fitted kitchen arranged for practical daily use. Residents benefit from a 24-hour support service and communal facilities, which bring reassurance and neighbourhood companionship.
The location is a strong selling point: local shops, cafes and restaurants are an easy walk away and excellent transport links provide straightforward journeys into surrounding areas and central London. The building is a modern, purpose-built block (c.1996–2002) with communal gardens and on-site parking for residents and visitors.
There are some material considerations to note. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than a communal central system, and the kitchen appears dated and may need modernisation to suit contemporary tastes. Service charges are relatively high at £4,535 per year and ground rent is £519 per year; the lease has about 96 years remaining. Prospective buyers should verify service arrangements, appliance condition and lease details with their solicitor.
Overall, this apartment will suit retirees looking to downsize into a supportive community close to local amenities and transport, who are comfortable with electric heating and the ongoing service charge commitments.
