A comfortable one-bedroom first-floor apartment in Knights Lodge, perfectly suited to someone looking to downsize without losing convenience. The living room is generous with a bright bay window and there’s a well-equipped kitchen with integrated appliances.

The apartment is presented in good order and benefits from a useful walk-in hallway storage cupboard.
Knights Lodge is a purpose-built retirement development with strong on-site support: a Lodge Manager five days a week, a 24-hour Careline emergency system, secure video entry and communal fire detection. Owners enjoy an active Owners’ Lounge with regular social events, an on-site guest suite (plus access to guest suites across Churchill Living developments) and an off-street private car park. Ground source heating is included via the community scheme, providing efficient communal warmth.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold (999-year lease from 2018) with an annual service charge of £3,447.30 and a ground rent of £822.98 (reviewable in 2032). The development has rules on pets and is managed communally, which may mean limited individual control over some changes. Local crime is reported as high, so consider this when assessing personal security alongside the building’s safety systems.
Situated a short walk from Lymington town centre, the quay and regular transport links (railway and ferry to the Isle of Wight), this apartment offers straightforward, low-maintenance living with easy access to shops, markets and leisure facilities. It will suit a retired buyer seeking social amenities, built-in support and a central location close to seaside attractions, while being mindful of ongoing charges and communal rules.
