Summary - GRIZEDALE COURT FLAT 20 FOREST GATE BLACKPOOL FY3 9AP
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Ready-to-move-in one-bedroom with communal facilities and parking.
Purpose-built first-floor retirement apartment, warden-assisted
This first-floor, purpose-built retirement apartment provides a ready-to-move-in one-bedroom home within a well-maintained development close to Stanley Park and Blackpool town centre. The flat has been newly renovated, benefits from double glazing and Economy 7 heating, and includes a bay-front lounge, fitted kitchen, double bedroom with built-in wardrobe and a combined bathroom/WC.
The development offers resident-focused amenities: a communal lounge, games room, laundry, hairdressing facility, 24-hour emergency call system and on-site parking. Maintained communal gardens and lift access to all floors add convenience for older occupants, while the property’s EPC rating of C is a practical energy standard for the area.
Important practical considerations are the lease length (approximately 63 years remaining) and significant annual service charge of around £3,500, plus ground rent of £228.42. The shortish lease may restrict mortgage options and will require buyers to check lender criteria and legal pack details. The property is being sold at online auction with a starting bid of £20,000 and auction fees and reservation requirements apply.
This apartment will suit a buyer seeking low-maintenance retirement living or an investor able to buy at auction and manage lease-related implications. It’s comfortably maintained and ready for immediate occupation, but prospective purchasers should review the lease, service charge accounts and auction terms before bidding.
