Summary - 46 MEADOWCROFT BUSHEY WD23 3BY
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Easy, low-maintenance retirement living close to shops and transport.
No onward chain; over 900 years remaining on lease
This purpose-built first-floor retirement flat offers low-maintenance living in the heart of Bushey with no onward chain. The layout suits someone looking to downsize but retain independent living: a good-sized lounge, double bedroom with fitted wardrobes, separate kitchen and bathroom, and lift access to the first floor. The long lease (over 900 years) provides security for buyers and investors alike.
The development includes communal landscaped gardens, residents’ parking (first-come, first-served) and on-site facilities such as a guest suite and laundry. Safety features aimed at older occupants include an entry phone system and emergency alarm cords in each room. Recent redecorating and new carpeting mean the flat is ready to move into while retaining scope to modernise the kitchen and bathroom to personal taste.
Practical considerations: heating is by electric storage heaters and the property uses electricity as the main fuel, which can affect running costs. There is an average annual service charge of about £3,600; prospective buyers should check what this covers and any additional leasehold fees. The kitchen is dated and will likely need updating for longer-term convenience and value uplift.
Overall this compact 569 sq ft retirement flat suits someone seeking a secure, low-upkeep home near local amenities and transport. It will particularly appeal to downsizers wanting communal support and easy access, or investors seeking a straightforward retirement-let opportunity with clear maintenance and tenancy considerations.
