A ground-floor two-bedroom flat in Chestnut House, Brook Court, offering low-hassle retirement living close to Sandbach town centre. The property is offered with no onward chain and sits within a well-kept development with communal gardens, laundry, visitor parking and an intercom-secured entrance.
This home is marketed as suitable for older buyers through Homewise’s Home for Life Lifetime Lease scheme (typical Lifetime Lease guide price shown £114,000 versus market value £170,000). The plan can reduce the upfront cost (typical savings 20–50% depending on age and choices) and allows purchase of up to 50% of the property value to safeguard capital for the future. Actual price depends on age and personal circumstances; use the Homewise calculator or request a personalised quote.
Internally the flat has a large living room, two bedrooms, a separate kitchen, bathroom and a small store room/study. At about 562 sq ft the accommodation is compact and suited to downsizers seeking convenience rather than generous space. Electric storage heating is installed and glazing is double; buyers should note running costs may be higher than gas-heated homes.
Practical points to check: there is a monthly service charge covering building insurance, communal maintenance and Care Line; the tenure/lease details require solicitor verification; any purchaser should confirm the exact Lifetime Lease terms if using Homewise. Overall this is a low-maintenance, centrally placed retirement apartment that offers potential cash savings through a Lifetime Lease but suits buyers comfortable with a smaller ground-floor flat and electric heating.
