Low‑maintenance over‑55s flat near Arnside promenade and station.
Bright second-floor apartment with private balcony and rooftop views
Set on the second floor of a well-kept over‑55s development, this bright two-bedroom apartment offers an easy, low‑maintenance lifestyle close to Arnside’s promenade and station. A generous living room opens onto a private balcony with rooftop views, while the kitchen, fitted with white units and a built-in oven, links visually to the living space via a wide interior window.
The main bedroom is a comfortable double with generous built-in storage; the second bedroom is versatile for guests, hobbies or a home office. The bathroom is practical and low‑upkeep, with a walk‑in electric shower, vanity storage and a heated towel rail. Residents benefit from communal gardens, a residents’ lounge, a private lockable storage room and unallocated off‑street parking.
Practical points for a downsizer: the apartment is leasehold (92 years remaining on a 125‑year lease from 1992) with a service charge averaging £3,671.16 per year (£305.93 pcm) and an annual ground rent of £90. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the property uses mains drainage; there’s no flood risk. The complex provides secure entry and communal facilities useful for independent retirement living.
This is a calm, community‑focused option for someone seeking easy access to local amenities, scenic walks and reliable transport links. The apartment’s compact footprint and service costs make it most suitable for those prioritising convenience and community over expansive living space.
