This bright one-bedroom second-floor apartment sits within Marbury Court, a McCarthy Stone Retirement Living Plus development beside the River Weaver Northwich Marina. At about 678 sq ft the layout feels generous for a retirement apartment and includes a Juliet balcony, a spacious living room with dining space, a fitted kitchen and a walk-in wardrobe in the double bedroom. Communal facilities include a homeowners’ lounge, table-service restaurant, roof terrace with river views and guest suite.
The development provides on-site support and peace of mind: an Estate Manager, 24-hour emergency call system, one hour of domestic assistance included in the service charge and access to personal care packages from a CQC-registered care agency. There is lift access to all floors, laundry room, contingency funds for communal upkeep and full fibre broadband. Parking is available by permit (allocated subject to availability).
Important costs and legal points are clear: this is a leasehold retirement property with 115 years remaining, an annual service charge of £10,944.92 and ground rent of £435 per year. Parking permits and guest suite use incur extra fees. Heating is provided via a community scheme and utilities such as council tax and electricity are not included in the service charge.
Location strengths include easy access to Northwich town centre, nearby rail links and major roads to Chester, Liverpool and Manchester. Buyers should note the wider area indicators: high local deprivation and a reported very high crime level — factors to weigh alongside the onsite security and communal support when deciding if this development matches your needs.
