Accessible, cared-for living in central Kenilworth with generous communal facilities.
Spacious one double bedroom with built-in wardrobe
A spacious one-bedroom retirement apartment on the second floor of Wilton Court, part of the McCarthy & Stone Retirement Living PLUS range. The flat offers a generous double bedroom with built-in wardrobe, bright living/dining room, and a modern fitted kitchen with integrated appliances. Full wheelchair accessibility, lift access and mobility scooter charging make the apartment easy to live in as mobility needs change.
Wilton Court provides significant on-site support and communal amenities: 24-hour staffing, an Estate’s Manager, emergency call system, an on-site CQC-registered care team, a waitress-service restaurant, homeowners’ lounge, function room, guest suite and domestic assistance (one hour included weekly). The development won a Housing for Older People with Care Award in 2019, reflecting its villa-style care focus and social facilities.
Practical points to note: the annual service charge is high at £10,671.77 and car parking is by separate rental scheme (subject to availability). Heating is electric storage heaters and wall-mounted electric in the bedroom — useful for zoning but can mean higher running costs compared with gas. Ground rent is £435 pa, with the lease having around 113–115 years remaining.
This apartment suits a buyer seeking a secure, social retirement environment with onsite care options and accessibility. It will particularly appeal to those who prioritise convenience, community and available care packages, while being comfortable with higher service charges and electric heating costs.
