2 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Low‑maintenance two-bed with 24-hour care and communal bistro.
Two-bedroom Retirement Living PLUS apartment, over-70s only
A purpose-built Retirement Living PLUS apartment created for over-70s, this two-bedroom, second-floor home in Springs Court offers low-maintenance living with on-site care and communal facilities. The development is managed with CQC-registered staff available 24 hours and includes a bistro serving freshly prepared meals, guest suite, and emergency call systems — well suited to buyers seeking security, community and flexible care packages.
The apartment is offered as shared ownership (examples: 50% share from £110,000 with £253pcm service charge; 75% share purchase option available at £165,000). The property is newly built in 2019 with a very long lease (987 years) and a solid SAP rating (up to 81). Practical positives include en-suite, walk-in wardrobe, off-street parking and low external maintenance responsibilities.
Buyers should note material limitations: heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, which can increase running costs; broadband speeds in the area are reported as very slow. Local data flags above-average crime and higher area deprivation, factors to weigh alongside the on-site security and 24-hour staffing. The shared-ownership tenure means ongoing rent can apply until a higher share is purchased; read the lease and service charge terms carefully.
Overall, this apartment is aimed at older purchasers prioritising on-site care, communal amenities and low-maintenance living. It represents a practical, well-serviced option for those wanting to downsize into a supported retirement setting, while accepting trade-offs on heating, connectivity and local area indicators.
