A well-presented two-bedroom first-floor apartment in Minerva Court, designed for the over-55s and set within easy walking distance of Boroughbridge High Street. The sitting room and kitchen both enjoy pleasant views over the Milby Cut Canal, and the modern kitchen includes integrated appliances and the gas-fired boiler. The accommodation is practical and comfortable, with good storage, a large wet room and double glazing throughout.
This leasehold home is offered chain free and sits within private communal grounds with off-street parking available on a first-come, first-served basis. Energy efficiency is reasonable (EPC C) and broadband speeds are good, supporting modern connectivity and home working. The development is in a generally affluent area close to local shops, services and the River Ure corridor for gentle walks.
Buyers should be aware the lease has 62 years remaining. This is a material issue: some mortgage lenders may refuse to lend until the lease is extended. Annual service charges total £1,152 and ground rent is £10 per year. There is a medium flood risk in the area — investigate insurance and local flood guidance before purchase.
Overall this is a low-maintenance, ready-to-live-in retirement flat that will suit downsizers seeking a convenient town location, canal views and straightforward accommodation, provided they and their advisers are comfortable with the current lease term and associated costs.
