This fourth-floor, two-bedroom apartment in Ellesmere offers a comfortable retirement-friendly home with generous communal gardens and private outdoor space. The open-plan living area and balcony capture natural light and overlook well-maintained grounds, creating a peaceful setting close to local shops and services.
Practical strengths include a long share-of-freehold lease (985 years), off-street underground parking, an ensuite shower to the principal bedroom and a fitted kitchen and bathroom. The development is mid‑1970s to early‑1980s construction with double glazing and gas central heating via boiler and radiators.
Buyers should note the service charge is £2,444 per year (reviewed annually) and sub-letting is not permitted, which affects rental potential. The apartment appears well presented but some internal decor reads as dated and may benefit from cosmetic updating. Being on the fourth floor could be less suitable for anyone with limited mobility.
Local amenities, good primary and several strong secondary schools nearby, and excellent mobile signal add convenience. Broadband speeds are average and the immediate area is classified as deprived, which may affect long‑term resale dynamics despite the property’s attractive communal setting.
