This third-floor, two-bedroom apartment offers compact, modern living designed for ease and low maintenance.

One allocated, covered parking space and fast broadband make daily life convenient for older buyers who want connected, comfortable accommodation close to shops and transport.
The property is being offered through Homewise’s Home for Life Lifetime Lease as an option for buyers aged 60+, which typically reduces the upfront cost compared with full market value. The Lifetime Lease price for this example is shown at £103,750 (guide only); the full market guide price is £155,000. Buyers can also choose to purchase up to a 50% share to safeguard future value — actual price depends on age and personal circumstances.
Practical points are clear: the flat is chain-free, has 115 years remaining on the lease, a service charge of about £2,044 pa and a ground rent of £250 pa. Heating is electric underfloor and the EPC is D. The building is modern with double glazing and was constructed post-2012, but the local area records higher crime and relative deprivation—something to consider for peace of mind and resale.
Well suited to downsizers or older buyers seeking a manageable, centrally located apartment with investment potential, this home balances modern, low-maintenance living with clear ongoing costs and local-area realities. Prospective purchasers should verify tenure, service charge details and suitability for any personal care or mobility needs before committing.
