This purpose-built first-floor retirement apartment sits in a tucked-away position within the popular Middleton-on-Sea development. The layout is practical: a private entrance leads to a lounge with pleasant views over Shrubbs Playing Field, a separate kitchen, two bedrooms and a recently re-fitted shower room. Communal grounds are well maintained and the development provides social facilities including a launderette, regular coffee/bingo mornings and a weekday manager presence.
The apartment is offered chain free, making it straightforward to move into. Off-street, non-allocated parking serves residents and local shops and amenities are close by. The location benefits from very low crime, excellent mobile signal and average broadband — suitable for everyday retirement living in an affluent coastal neighbourhood.
Buyers should note material leasehold issues: 59 years remain on the lease and the ground rent is £1,992 per year. These are significant concerns. Many mortgage lenders restrict lending where the remaining term is under typical thresholds, so purchase may be possible only with a cash buyer or a specialist lender. Confirm financing options and lease-extension costs before committing.
Overall this apartment will suit someone seeking an active retirement community near the coast who values convenience, on-site support and green outlooks. It offers immediate move-in readiness but requires cautious consideration of lease length, ground rent and future resale implications due to the short lease.
