Communal facilities, parking and on-site support for comfortable low-maintenance living.
Second-floor apartment with lift to all floors
Set on the second floor of a McCarthy & Stone development, this two-bedroom retirement apartment offers practical, low-maintenance living with lift access and communal support. The block includes an on-site Development Manager, 24-hour Appello emergency call system, residents’ lounge, communal laundry, guest suite and off-street parking — useful for regular visitors.
Inside, the layout is straightforward: entrance hall with storage, a proportionally larger lounge, kitchen with a window, two bedrooms with fitted wardrobes and a shower room with a step-up shower. The property is presented in a conventional neutral finish but the kitchen is dated and would benefit from modernisation to suit contemporary tastes.
Key running costs and lease details are important for buyers: the lease started in 1995 with about 94–95 years remaining, a service charge of £4,550.38 and ground rent of £582.44. Heating is via electric storage heaters and there is a communal satellite dish (additional fees may apply).
This apartment suits a downsizer seeking communal facilities, lift access and onsite support. Be aware of the above-average service charge, the older kitchen and electric heating when weighing ongoing costs and any refurbishment plans.
