This ground-floor apartment in an over-55s development offers a compact, low-maintenance home close to Kendal town centre. The layout includes a bright lounge, modern kitchen, two bedrooms and a wet room, arranged around a communal courtyard and lounge that encourage social living while retaining privacy.
Practical features suit retired buyers: level access from the paved path, emergency pull cords with 24/7 house-manager cover, and communal laundry facilities. The property is offered chain free and has a very affordable council tax band, making monthly costs predictable, though heating relies on electric storage heaters.
Important lease and lending note: there are 63 years remaining on the lease. That is low for lenders — many mortgage providers may refuse to lend or will require specialist financing. Prospective buyers should check lender criteria or consider buying with cash or a specialist lease-extension plan.
Other considerations: broadband speeds are reported slow, and the flat is modest in size (around 502 sq ft), so it suits buyers seeking convenience and community rather than large living spaces. Overall, the apartment provides a practical, secure retirement base with easy access to shops, transport links and local amenities.
