A one-bedroom retirement apartment on the Riverside at The Moorings, set within attractive communal gardens and enjoying canal-side views. The bright sitting room is generously proportioned for a property of this size and opens to a compact kitchen via double doors, creating flexible living and dining space. The double bedroom has built-in storage and the shower room offers a large walk-in shower for easy access.
Purpose-built for the over-60s, the development includes secure off-street parking, a residents' lounge, guest suite, laundry room, lift access and well-kept communal grounds — features that suit buyers seeking low-effort, community-focused retirement living. The apartment's high ceilings and Georgian waterfront setting add character and a strong sense of place.
Practical considerations: the property is leasehold with an annual ground rent of £619.08 and a service charge of £2,804.94, which should be factored into running costs. Heating is by electric storage heaters and windows are secondary glazed; these are functional but may lead to higher energy use compared with modern central heating. The kitchen is compact and shows some dated finishes, offering straightforward scope for cosmetic updating.
Overall this is a comfortable, well-located retirement flat that will appeal to buyers wanting riverside character, communal facilities and low-maintenance living. It suits those prepared to accept leasehold running costs and to update a small kitchen to their taste.
