Second-floor two-bedroom with communal gardens, parking and 24/7 emergency monitoring.
Second-floor, purpose-built over-55s apartment with lift access
Purpose-built for over-55s, this well-presented second-floor apartment offers comfortable, low-maintenance living in a managed development. The sitting room, fitted kitchen and two good-sized bedrooms make it practical for downsizers who want easy access to town centre amenities. Communal gardens, a residents’ lounge, lift access and off-street parking add convenience and social space.
The flat is chain-free and sold with a long lease (circa 283 years remaining). It benefits from gas central heating, UPVC double glazing, a monitored emergency/intercom system and neutral decoration throughout — ready to move into with no immediate cosmetic works required. Broadband and mobile signals are strong in the area.
Running costs and tenure details are important: an annual service charge of about £3,566 covers communal maintenance, lifts, insurance and the emergency system, and ground rent is £253.90 per year. The apartment is leasehold and modest in overall size (around 437 sq ft), so check space requirements carefully. Note the local crime level is above average; the development’s security and communal living may mitigate some concerns.
Located minutes from Bury St Edmunds town centre with good road links (A14) and nearby amenities, this apartment suits retirees or downsizers seeking a secure, sociable setting with long lease security and straightforward, managed upkeep.
