Set within the peaceful Highfield Court development, this two-bedroom retirement home offers low-maintenance, secure living for the over-55s. The property is chain-free and freehold, with an on-site manager and a 24-hour emergency call system for added reassurance.
Ground-floor living includes a bright living/dining room with French doors onto a private patio, a fitted kitchen and a shower room. Two double bedrooms and a second bathroom sit on the first floor, delivering practical room layout and easy circulation across its approximately 689 sq ft.
Practical positives include an allocated off-street parking space, gas central heating and double glazing renewed after 2002. The development is well located for village amenities, countryside walks and commuter links — M4 Junction 11 is about 4 miles and Mortimer rail station about 2 miles away.
Buyers should note the monthly management charge of £270 (£3,240 pa) for communal services and support, a very small plot size with a modest patio rather than a larger garden, and local crime levels reported above average. Overall this is a convenient, low-upkeep option suited to downsizers seeking community and connectivity.
