Compact, convenient over‑55s home with lift and communal garden.
No forward chain — ready for quick purchase
A practical one-bedroom retirement flat in a quiet, well-kept development close to Chandler’s Ford amenities. The first-floor apartment offers lift access, a generous living room, double bedroom with built-in storage and a fitted kitchen, finished with double glazing throughout. The building has a charming communal garden and resident off-street parking, and the property is offered with no forward chain and a very long lease.
This home suits someone downsizing or seeking a low-maintenance retirement base with good local links — shops, bus routes to Winchester and Southampton, and quick access to the M27/M3. Service charge and small ground rent fund communal maintenance and facilities; the current service charge is approximately £1,380 pa and ground rent £14 pa.
Practical points to note: heating is by electric room heaters (no central heating), which may increase running costs and limit warmth in colder months. Broadband is average and the apartment is modest in size at about 498 sq ft, so storage and entertaining space are limited compared with a house. Council tax band is not provided and should be confirmed.
Overall this is a straightforward, well-located retirement apartment with long lease security and minimal immediate maintenance, best for buyers prioritising convenience, community and a low-mobility lifestyle rather than low running costs or expansive internal space.
