Summary - 51, WADE-WRIGHT COURT, PRIORY ROAD PE38 9HY
1 bed 1 bath Apartment
Compact, low-maintenance one-bedroom ideal for over-60s seeking community living.
First-floor retirement apartment close to lift and communal garden view
A purpose-built McCarthy & Stone retirement apartment on the first floor, positioned close to the lift and overlooking the communal gardens. The one-bedroom layout includes a living/dining room, compact kitchen, built-in wardrobe and an accessible wet room — designed for low-maintenance, single-level living.
The development offers practical communal facilities: lounge, laundry room and a parking area, plus emergency pull-cord assistance within the apartment. UPVC double glazing and electric storage heaters keep the flat secure and straightforward to maintain, and the property is offered with no onward chain.
Important points for buyers: the property is leasehold with 103 years remaining and an annual service charge of £2,636 (includes water). Heating is electric storage, and the area is classified as deprived with higher local crime levels, which may affect resale or rental prospects. The apartment’s circa 450 sq ft footprint suits those seeking a compact, manageable home rather than spacious accommodation.
This apartment will suit over-60s looking to downsize into a safe, community-focused development with easy access to local amenities and transport. Buyers wanting reduced maintenance and communal support features will find genuine value, while those wanting low running costs, extensive living space or mains gas heating should note the limitations.
