Ready-to-move-in one-bedroom with high-spec kitchen and walk-in shower.
Ground-floor retirement flat with patio access
This ground-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment at Fleur De Lis offers comfortable, low-maintenance living in exceptional condition. The open-plan lounge/diner enjoys double-aspect windows and patio access to a small communal patio used by this flat, creating a bright, accessible living space ideal for downsizers.
The apartment includes a luxury fitted kitchen with quartz worktops and integrated appliances, plus a fully tiled walk-in shower room finished to a high standard. Central heating is provided via a community scheme and there is a useful boiler cupboard in the hallway. The lease has 117 years remaining, providing long-term security for buyers.
Buyers should note the property is small (about 400 sq ft) and sits within a communal retirement development, so communal rules and shared facilities apply. Service charges are above average at £4,343.88 per year (paid half-yearly), and ground rent is £525 per year. The immediate area scores high for deprivation and recorded crime is very high, which may concern some purchasers.
Overall this apartment suits someone seeking a well-presented, ready-to-live-in retirement home with high-quality fixtures and communal amenities, but who is comfortable with higher running costs and the local area profile. Buyers are advised to verify service charge details and other matters with their legal adviser before committing.
