This top-floor retirement apartment in Roswell Court offers relaxed seaside living with practical, on-site support. The one-bedroom layout includes a double bedroom with fitted wardrobe, modern bathroom with both bath and level-access shower, and a well-equipped kitchen with integrated appliances. Large windows and a Juliet balcony provide partial coastal glimpses from the living room and kitchen.
Roswell Court is a ‘Retirement Living Plus’ development built in 2013, with extensive communal facilities: an on-site restaurant, homeowners’ lounge, landscaped gardens, roof terrace with panoramic coastal views, laundry and mobility scooter store. Residents benefit from an Estate Manager, 24/7 CQC-registered care staff, a 24-hour emergency call system, and one hour of domestic assistance included weekly in the service charge.
Practical considerations are clear and important. The property is leasehold with 112 years remaining, a ground rent of £435 pa and a substantial service charge of £10,543.91 pa (year ending 31/03/2026). Parking is by annual permit (subject to availability) with an estimated cost of around £250 per year. These costs fund the on-site staffing, facilities and maintenance but make overall running costs higher than for standard private flats.
For buyers seeking an active, supported retirement close to Exmouth’s beach, amenities and coastal paths, this energy-efficient apartment provides independence with peace of mind. It will particularly suit those who value community facilities and on-site care options; buyers prioritising low ongoing costs or private ownership may find the service charge and ground rent restrictive.
