A practical ground-floor one-bedroom apartment designed for over-55s, offered on a 70% shared ownership basis and sold with no onward chain. The layout provides a lounge, compact fitted kitchen, bedroom with wardrobes and a three-piece bathroom — all on one level for easy access. The development sits in a comfortable neighbourhood close to shops, transport links and local amenities, with fast broadband and a low-maintenance garden space.
Buyers should note the material considerations: approximately 62 years remain on the lease, which may limit mortgage options and affect resale value. There is a monthly service charge of about £89 (annual c. £1,069.68) and the property is leasehold; purchasers should verify lease details and lender acceptability with their solicitor early in the process.
This apartment will suit older buyers seeking a manageable home near local services, or cash buyers/investors prepared to deal with a shorter lease. The building dates from the early 1990s, has double glazing and mains gas heating, offering straightforward living with modest running costs. For anyone seeking convenience over extensive living space, this presents a convenient, low-upkeep option in a well-regarded over-55s setting.
