1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Comfortable, low-maintenance apartment with onsite support and communal garden.
Communal lounge and laundry; lift to all floors and Garden outlook
Second-floor flat with longer lounge and bedroom than some units
House Manager onsite plus 24-hour emergency careline and intercom
Compact total area — approx. 403 sq ft (small) — limited space
Leasehold with age-restricted occupancy (60/55 purchase condition)
Electric storage heaters — may mean higher running costs
Double glazing and insulated cavity walls (as built) help with warmth
Local crime levels are higher than average — consider location safety
Light, manageable and purpose-built for older residents, this second-floor one-bedroom flat in Homecanton House suits someone looking to downsize without losing convenience. The apartment’s longer-than-average lounge and bedroom create comfortable living proportions for its overall compact footprint. A House Manager, 24-hour emergency careline and a building lift add daily reassurance.
The accommodation is practical and ready to use: a bright lounge overlooking the communal garden, a modern shower room, and a fitted kitchen with space for essentials. Double glazing and cavity walls (as built) help with insulation, though heating is by electric storage heaters so running costs can vary seasonally.
Important practical points: the flat is leasehold with age-restricted occupancy (buyers must meet the over-60/55 rule), and the total internal floor area is small at about 403 sq ft. The local area is classed as self-sufficient retirement with good local shops and fast broadband, but recorded local crime levels are higher than average.
For someone seeking a low-maintenance, centrally placed retirement home with onsite support and communal facilities, this flat offers immediate occupation potential. Buyers should factor in leasehold terms, electric heating costs, and the compact size when deciding if this is the right long-term fit.
