1 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Modern one-bedroom retirement apartment with communal gardens and long lease.
One-bedroom retirement apartment with Juliet balcony and fitted wardrobe
A well-presented one-bedroom retirement apartment in the Waveney Place development, offered with a long lease and ready-made communal life. The apartment has an open-plan living/dining area that leads to a north-facing Juliet balcony, a fitted bedroom wardrobe, and a bathroom with a large walk-in shower. Communal features include landscaped gardens, paved seating, a timber gazebo, guest suite and off-street parking — useful for visitors and family stays.
This new-build (2019) apartment is designed for low-maintenance living: modern finishes, built-in storage and a useful hall cupboard housing the washer-dryer. The long lease (997 years) gives security of tenure, while the SAP rating up to 85 suggests good energy performance. The setting is village-rural close to Harleston town centre and essentials, with very low crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — helpful for staying connected.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold and will have service/management charges typical of retirement developments (amount not supplied). Heating is electric via room heaters, which can increase running costs compared with gas systems. The apartment is relatively compact (about 548 sq ft) — ideal for downsizers but limited for extensive entertaining or storage needs. The local area is described as deprived in broader statistics, though the immediate village setting is quiet and well maintained.
Overall this apartment suits someone seeking low-maintenance, community-focused retirement living in a rural Norfolk village. It offers a secure long lease, modern finishes and communal facilities, but prospective buyers should check current service charges and budget for electric heating costs.
