A bright, south-facing one-bedroom retirement flat on the second floor of Glendower Court, offered chain-free and ready for immediate occupation. The open-plan living area faces the well-kept communal gardens and benefits from lift access, communal parking and on-site support including a house manager, communal lounge, laundry and guest suite — useful conveniences for independent retirement living.
The apartment is comfortable and low-maintenance with double glazing and electric storage heaters. The layout includes an entrance hall, open lounge/diner, fitted kitchen, large bedroom with wardrobe space and a modified shower room. At about 463 sq ft, the accommodation is a practical size for single occupancy or couples seeking downsized living close to Whitchurch village amenities and public transport.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold retirement scheme for over-55s with around 95 years remaining on the lease. There may be additional service charges, communal fees or lease pack costs — these should be verified before purchase. Heating is by electric storage radiators rather than gas central heating, and the property’s location is in an area reported as having higher crime and significant local deprivation, which may influence personal safety perceptions and resale considerations.
Overall, this is a straightforward, well-managed retirement apartment that suits downsizers or retirees looking for a south-facing, low-upkeep home with on-site support and easy access to local shops and transport. Verify lease details, service charge levels and any electrical or heating service history as part of pre-purchase checks.
