A well-presented two double-bedroom retirement apartment in the sought-after McCarthy & Stone Avalon Court, designed for independent over-60s living. The second-floor apartment (671 sq ft) offers a bright lounge-diner, fitted kitchen, built-in wardrobes and a contemporary shower room — all ready to move into with no onward chain.
Residents benefit from substantial communal facilities: a house manager, 24-hour emergency call system, homeowners’ lounge, guest suite, laundry room, lift and landscaped gardens for socialising and convenience. The building dates from 2007–2011, has double glazing and an EPC rating of B.
Practical considerations include leasehold tenure with around 110 years remaining and notably high annual costs: service charge approximately £4,400 and ground rent recorded at £4,400 annually. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which may increase running costs compared with mains gas alternatives, and the local area records above-average crime levels.
This apartment will suit active retirees seeking a secure, low-maintenance base close to Lincoln city centre and the historic Bailgate. It combines modern fixtures and communal support with clear ongoing costs and some location-related drawbacks buyers should factor into affordability calculations.
