Summary - 21 ABBEY CLOSE CRANLEIGH GU6 8TP
1 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Sociable village living with on-site amenities and landscaped grounds.
South-facing sitting room with French doors to private patio
A bright one-bedroom retirement apartment set within Elmbridge Village’s extensive landscaped grounds, ideal for downsizers seeking an active community. The south-facing sitting room opens via French doors to a private patio and mature communal garden, while a modern fitted kitchen and a double bedroom with fitted cupboards keep day-to-day living straightforward.
Residents benefit from on-site facilities including a restaurant, residents’ bar, GP surgery, allotments, croquet and bowls areas, and a 24-hour emergency call system—useful for peace of mind. The internal layout is traditional and well maintained, with an easy-access shower in the bathroom and gas central heating by boiler and radiators.
Practical considerations are important: the property is leasehold with an above-average service charge of £5,464 and ground rent of £255, which cover communal services and facilities. Broadband speeds are reported as slow and local recorded crime is above average, which may influence connectivity and sense of security for some buyers.
Constructed in the late 1970s/early 1980s, the building has double glazing (install date unknown) and timber-frame walls (assumed insulated). Flood risk is low. This apartment is best suited to retirees or anyone looking to downsize into a sociable, facility-rich setting, while accepting higher communal costs and some local area drawbacks.
