Low‑maintenance modern apartment with communal gardens and on-site manager.
Purpose-built retirement apartment, built 2023, 560 sq ft
This one-bedroom retirement apartment in Summer Manor offers low-maintenance, contemporary living for the over-60s in Burley in Wharfedale. Built in 2023, the 560 sq ft home sits in well-kept communal gardens and benefits from an on-site house manager, lifts to all floors, and a welcoming homeowners’ lounge with organised social events.
The apartment is designed for easy day-to-day living: a bright lounge with a Juliet balcony, a fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, a good-sized bedroom with fitted wardrobe, and a contemporary walk-in shower room. The long lease (999 years from 2023) and no ground rent give long-term security, while superfast broadband and excellent mobile signal support staying connected.
Practical considerations: heating is by electric room heaters rather than a central wet system, which may affect running costs depending on usage and tariffs. The annual service charge (£3,437.27 for the year ending 31/08/2026) covers the house manager, communal utilities, maintenance and buildings insurance but is a material ongoing cost to budget for. The property is leasehold and located in a generally affluent, accessible town centre setting with off-street parking and good links to Leeds and Bradford.
Overall, this purpose-built retirement apartment will suit someone seeking a modern, low-maintenance home with community amenities and onsite support, balanced against the predictable service charge and electric heating arrangement.
