Detached single-storey bungalow with small private garden
A detached, single-storey bungalow set within well-maintained communal grounds, this two-bedroom freehold home is designed for independent retirement living with on-site care and generous communal facilities. The interior offers a fully fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, a wet room and air-source underfloor heating with individual thermostats, helping to keep running costs low. Emergency call points link directly to the main hall and 24‑hour staffed support provides extra peace of mind. An on-site café and extensive landscaped gardens with ponds and fruit trees create a calm, social setting.
The plot and exterior are low-maintenance with a small private garden and paved patio. Double glazing and high levels of insulation add comfort, and utilities are electric mains with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband potential. The property is freehold and in a very low flood‑risk area; council tax is in the low Band A. The bungalow is compact (approx. 584 sq ft) and best suited to downsizers seeking single-level living within a retirement community.
Buyers should note the communal maintenance/service charge is approximately £6,332 per year (covers gates, CCTV, window cleaning, grounds maintenance, emergency call system and communal staff). There is an age restriction (75+), and on-site personal care, domestic help and meals are available but charged separately and invoiced monthly in arrears. The living room decor appears dated and may need modernisation; potential buyers should inspect the lounge for signs of damp and general redecoration needs.
Overall this bungalow offers low-effort, secure retirement living in attractive grounds with on-site care options and practical energy-efficient heating. It will suit buyers prioritising safety, community facilities and single-level convenience, or investors targeting retirement occupancy, provided they accept the service costs and age restriction.
