Refurbished, move-in-ready retirement flat with patio and garage near Henley town centre.
Ground-floor retirement flat with private entrance and patio garden
A well-presented, ground-floor retirement flat quietly positioned about a mile from Henley town centre. The current owner has fully refurbished the accommodation to a move-in-ready standard; the sitting room opens via sliding doors to an east-facing patio that overlooks well-tended communal gardens and the town’s war memorial. Practical benefits include a nearby single garage, residents’ lounge, 24-hour emergency call system and a regular local bus service to shops.
This apartment is designed for independent retirement living: two double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes, a modern kitchen with integrated appliances, and a bathroom with a walk-in shower and seat. Electric programmable heaters and double/secondary glazing keep the flat straightforward to run, while communal grounds and organised resident activities support social life on site.
Important practical considerations are factual and significant: the property is leasehold with only 63 years remaining, which may restrict mortgage availability and could require future lease-extension costs. Service charge (£2,993 pa) and ground rent (£196 pa) apply; heating is electric storage so running costs can be higher than gas-heated homes. The flat is for qualifying age groups (retirement development) and sold chain-free.
This will suit someone seeking a low-maintenance retirement base close to Henley amenities, who values communal facilities and a private patio. Buyers should check mortgageability against the remaining lease and budget for ongoing service and energy costs before viewing.
