Secure, low-maintenance over-60s apartment with private patio and communal facilities.
Ground-floor one-bedroom with separate dressing room/home office potential
A bright, ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in an exclusive over-60s development in the heart of East Grinstead. Built in 2018, the home offers a generous double bedroom with a separate dressing room that could double as a home office, and a living room with patio doors opening onto a private patio — ideal for low-maintenance outdoor time.
The development is designed for secure, sociable retirement living: there’s a communal owners’ lounge with coffee bar, guest suite, on-site lodge manager (Mon–Fri), 24-hour careline support, video entry and secure barrier-controlled parking. The property is offered with no onward chain and sits within an affluent, low-crime area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Practicalities to note: the apartment is leasehold with a very long lease (992 years), but service charges are above average at £4,328 per year and ground rent is £624 annually. Heating is provided by a community scheme. The property’s overall size is around 478 sq ft — comfortable for a single occupant or couple seeking convenience rather than large living spaces.
This apartment suits someone looking to downsize into a secure, well-managed retirement setting with social amenities and easy maintenance. Buyers should review the service charge breakdown and communal rules to ensure they are comfortable with ongoing costs and the leasehold arrangements.
