Quietly positioned at the rear of a contemporary development in Market Harborough, this well-presented two-bedroom retirement apartment offers immediate occupation and low-maintenance living. The layout includes a spacious lounge/diner with a Juliet balcony, a fitted kitchen with appliances, two large double bedrooms and a modern shower room — practical spaces designed for comfortable daily living.
Residents benefit from strong communal provisions: an on-site residents’ restaurant and lounge, managed communal gardens, off-road parking and a resident house manager. A 24-hour emergency call system and included communal services give additional reassurance and convenience for those seeking supportive retirement living.
Buyers should note the property is leasehold (999 years from 2019) with an annual service charge of £11,936.21 and ground rent of £510. The service charge covers many communal running costs but is high and will be a material ongoing expense. Heating is electric via panel/room heaters, and electricity for the apartment is not included in the service charge.
This apartment will suit downsizers wanting a spacious, low-upkeep home with social amenities close by. It offers immediate move-in potential and strong long-lease security, but budget-conscious buyers should factor the substantial service charge and electric heating into running costs.
