Summary - Linden Road, Bedford, MK40 MK40 2UX
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Chain-free two-bed retirement flat with communal services and lift access, close to town centre.
Chain-free retirement apartment, age 60+ purchasers only
A first-floor retirement apartment arranged over approximately 648 sq ft, offered chain-free and available to buyers aged 60 and over. The well-cared-for two-bedroom layout includes a bay-windowed master with fitted wardrobes, a good-sized living room with bay window and fireplace, plus a fitted kitchen and bathroom. Lift access and communal gardens add convenience and outdoor space.
This development provides practical retirement-focused facilities: a residents’ lounge, laundry room with machines and dryers, 24-hour emergency call service and communal upkeep. There is an allocated parking space available by application. The building dates from the 1980s, has double glazing (installation date not known) and electric storage heaters.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold, built 1983–1990, and situated in an area classed as deprived with a high local crime rate. Heating is by electric storage radiators (no communal gas), so running costs can be higher than gas-heated homes. Council tax is very low, but prospective buyers should review the lease terms, service charges and parking allocation procedure before committing.
This apartment will suit a downsizer seeking low-maintenance living close to Bedford town centre and the mainline station, who values onsite support and communal facilities. It also offers scope for cosmetic updating to reflect personal taste while providing immediate, secure retirement living.
