Summary - 21 ST PAULS CLOSE OADBY LEICESTER LE2 4LZ
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Low-maintenance two-bed with communal gardens, close to local shops and bus links.
- Over-55s development, first-floor flat
A practical first-floor apartment in a popular over-55s development, offered as 85% shared ownership and available with no upward chain. Recently recarpeted and redecorated, the home offers a fresh, low-maintenance base with communal gardens, off-street parking and easy access to local shops, healthcare and regular bus links into Leicester.
The accommodation comprises a sitting room, kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom, arranged within a compact 560 sq ft footprint. Gas central heating, double glazing and an EPC rating of C help keep running costs reasonable, and council tax is described as very cheap.
Important considerations: the lease has around 80 years remaining and mortgage lenders may refuse or apply stricter criteria. The property attracts an average service charge of about £2,250 per year. The overall size is small and some internal areas retain dated 1960s finishes, so buyers should expect limited space and potential modernisation costs.
For someone aged over 55 seeking a low-hassle, well-located home close to healthcare, shops and public transport, this flat provides immediate occupancy and community living. It suits buyers prioritising convenience and care-free communal upkeep over extensive living space or long leasehold security.
