This ground-floor, two-bedroom flat in Axminster’s town centre offers a compact, low-maintenance home designed for over-55s. The apartment’s open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner and a master bedroom with ensuite create an easy, single-level layout suited to downsizers who want convenience and light-filled living without stairs.
Practical conveniences include lift access, a telephone entry system, allocated storage and a secure gated parking space—useful for residents who keep a car but want the security of an enclosed car park. The kitchen is modern with integrated appliances and the living areas present a contemporary finish that needs little immediate work.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold retirement property with approximately 106 years remaining. Annual costs include a service charge of around £2,174 and ground rent of about £379, which cover communal maintenance and security. Heating is by electric storage heaters, so running costs can be higher than gas-heated homes, and broadband speeds in the area are reported as slow.
Overall, the flat will suit someone seeking a small, well-located retirement home with secure parking and low external maintenance. It represents straightforward, comfortable living in Axminster’s market town centre, but budget-conscious buyers should factor in service charges, electric heating costs, and broadband limitations.
