Maxwell Lodge 4 is a ground-floor, two-bedroom retirement apartment conveniently placed a short walk from Market Harborough town centre. The apartment was the original show home and is presented in very good order following recent renovation. All principal rooms look onto attractive communal gardens and a private patio gives direct garden access—ideal for easy outdoor living and social time with neighbours.
The development is purpose-built for retirees and includes extensive communal facilities: a large owners’ lounge with kitchenette, laundry, guest suite, landscaped gardens, covered mobility scooter charging, and a full-time lodge manager. Safety features include an emergency careline in every apartment, intruder alarm, video entry and full fire/smoke detection—useful if you value on-site support and regular community events.
Practical running costs and tenure details are important to note. The property is offered chain-free and benefits from off-street residents’ parking with some covered car ports. The apartment is listed with a service charge of £4,847.92pa and a ground rent of £717.76pa; the lease shows 114 years remaining. Walls are solid brick (assumed no cavity insulation) and double glazing is installed.
This apartment will suit retirees or downsizers seeking a low-maintenance, community-focused home close to shops, parks and amenities. The presentation and communal management reduce everyday upkeep, but prospective buyers should factor the higher-than-average service charge and ground rent into affordability calculations.
