A comfortable second-floor corner apartment in a McCarthy Stone development, designed specifically for over-60s. The living room opens to a Juliet balcony with an east-facing view over landscaped communal grounds, and the layout includes a separate kitchen, double bedroom with walk-in wardrobe and a shower room. The home is modest in size (approx. 506 sq ft) and suits single occupancy or a couple seeking low-maintenance later living close to local shops and bus routes.
The development offers strong on-site support and communal facilities: a dedicated House Manager (Mon–Fri), homeowners’ lounge, guest suite, mobility scooter charging room and a 24-hour emergency call system. Lift access and allocated off-street parking (permit fee applies) make the building accessible, while the service charge covers external maintenance, gardening, buildings insurance and communal utilities.
Buyers should note practical running costs and some restrictions typical of retirement schemes. Heating is electric (room heaters) which can raise energy bills; the annual service charge is £2,874.04 and ground rent is £425 per year (next review Jan 2031). Leasehold with 116 years remaining; purchase is subject to the age restriction of 60+.
Location is a key benefit: the property sits within 100 yards of local shops, a Co-op and bus stops with links to Rotherham and Sheffield. Fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and nearby green spaces add convenience and lifestyle options for residents. A part-exchange option is available for qualifying buyers.
