A ground-floor, purpose-built retirement apartment arranged for residents aged over 60. Recently renovated, the one-bedroom flat offers an open-plan living/dining layout, a refitted shower room and a double bedroom with a built-in wardrobe and bowed window overlooking well-kept communal gardens. The property includes access to one-third of an en-bloc garage/storage and off-street resident parking on a first-come, first-served basis.
The location is a strong practical selling point: approximately 100 metres from Hatherley Park and within easy reach of Montpellier’s amenities, making daily walks and local shops straightforward. The development is quiet, set in a very affluent area with very low crime and good local services—appealing for buyers seeking low-maintenance, accessible living.
Buyers should note material drawbacks plainly. The lease has only 46 years remaining and this may prevent many mortgage lenders from approving a loan; legal advice is essential early in the process. Heating is electric room heaters rather than a communal system, which can mean higher running costs compared with gas or communal heating. Communal service charges of around £1,440pa and a small ground rent (£20) apply.
Overall this is a compact, well-presented retirement apartment offering convenience, low-maintenance gardens and recent refurbishment. It will suit a cash buyer, downsizer or specialist lender applicant, and could interest investors mindful of lease length and lending limitations.
