Summary - MONTAGUE LODGE, 95 11 RECTORY ROAD BECKENHAM BR3 1XF
1 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Comfortable first-floor flat near shops, transport and communal facilities.
One double bedroom with built-in wardrobe and dressing area
A first-floor, one-bedroom retirement flat located a short walk from Beckenham High Street and local transport links. The layout includes a generous lounge/diner, fitted kitchen and a modern walk-in shower room — comfortable living for a single occupant or couple of state retirement age. Communal facilities include a residents’ lounge, laundry room, lift access, 24-hour Care Link and an on-site house manager (office hours).
Practical details: the flat is electrically heated via storage heaters and has double glazing installed post-2002. The building was constructed in the 1980s and the apartment is an average-sized home of approximately 474 sq ft; some internal areas show dated finishes and would benefit from a light refresh.
Important lease and cost considerations are clear: 61 years remain on the lease and mortgage lenders may refuse to lend; the service charge is high (approx. £4,297.50 pa) and there is an annual ground rent of about £225. Council Tax is Band C (around £1,815.52 pa).
This property suits someone seeking convenient town living with built-in support and communal amenities. View with the lease and service-charge implications in mind — it may be better for a cash buyer or a retired purchaser already familiar with leasehold retirement schemes.
