Quiet, manageable and centrally located, this second-floor retirement apartment in Homedee House is aimed at buyers aged 60+. The block offers a resident warden, passenger lift, communal sitting room, laundry and maintained gardens — useful communal facilities for independent living close to Chester city centre and public transport.
The flat itself is compact and practical: a sitting/dining room, separate kitchen, double bedroom with fitted wardrobe and a shower room. Double glazing and electric storage heaters are fitted; the accommodation is low-maintenance and suitable for someone seeking a small, easy-to-run home within walking distance of shops, healthcare and city amenities.
Buyers should note important tenure and running-cost details. Approximately 62 years remain on the lease, which may prevent many high-street lenders from offering a mortgage. The annual service charge is about £3,030 and ground rent approximately £355 per year; prospective purchasers should check affordability and resale implications. Heating is by electric storage heaters — running costs can be higher than gas.
Overall this is a sensible, well-located retirement apartment for an over-60 buyer who prioritises central location, communal support and low upkeep. It suits someone able to buy outright or arrange specialist leasehold lending, and who accepts the service charges and electric heating arrangement.
