First-floor two-bedroom apartment with private balcony
Set in the picturesque riverside village of Bourne End, this first-floor two-bedroom apartment offers a calm, sociable retirement setting.

Wharf Lane is built around community life, with a social lounge, guest suite, and landscaped gardens for residents to use. Practical features include lift access to all floors, ample storage cupboards, an on-site team (Monday–Friday), and a 24-hour emergency care line for peace of mind. The long lease (994 years) gives security for buyers.
Costs and practicalities to note: the property is leasehold with an annual service charge of £6,855 and ground rent of £575. Parking is off-street and available subject to space and an additional annual fee. The development uses a community heating scheme and the area carries a medium flood risk and council tax band E.
