A tidy two-bedroom end-terrace bungalow on a popular retirement development, ready to move into. The lounge/diner looks out over well-kept communal gardens and the fitted kitchen and shower room have been modernised, so day-to-day living is straightforward. Double glazing and gas central heating keep running costs reasonable; the home sits in a quiet cluster near shops, medical facilities and regular bus links to Burton town centre.
This property is aimed at downsizers seeking low-maintenance, independent retirement living. The communal gardens and paved patio provide pleasant outdoor space without onerous upkeep. The lease started in 1997 with 119 years remaining and the service charge (approx. £214 pcm / £2,568 pa) covers grounds maintenance, buildings insurance, window cleaning and boiler servicing — useful protections for a retirement setting.
Important practical notes: this is a leasehold retirement scheme and prospective purchasers must meet the scheme operator’s eligibility criteria; the scheme provides a 24-hour contact facility but does not provide care or daily assistance. There is an above-average local crime rate and the wider area has pockets of deprivation, which may concern some buyers. EPC rating C and council tax band B are positives for running costs.
Overall, this bungalow offers a straightforward, low-effort retirement home in a convenient location. It will suit someone prioritising independent, single-storey living with communal upkeep taken care of, but buyers should factor in the leasehold terms, service charge and local area considerations before arranging a viewing.
