Ready-to-move-in two-bedroom flat close to transport and seaside amenities.
Second-floor retirement apartment with lift access
Set on the cliff-top in Sandown, this second-floor retirement apartment offers compact, ready-to-live-in accommodation for over‑55s. The interior is modern and well-presented, with a lounge/dining room, two bedrooms and a practical kitchen — all laid out across about 463 sq ft. The building includes a lift, communal lounge and gardens, plus residents and visitor parking for convenience.
Location is a strong selling point: the flat sits on a main bus route with the local train station within walking distance, making island travel straightforward. The property is share of freehold with 125 years remaining and no flood risk, and communal life is supported by facilities aimed at older residents.
Buyers should note the property uses electric storage heaters rather than gas central heating, and glazing predates 2002. The living room shows some 1980s-era detailing that may suit buyers wanting a straightforward move-in or those planning light modernisation. Service charges average £2,720 per year — an important running cost to factor in alongside a relatively small overall footprint.
This apartment will appeal to retirees seeking low-maintenance living near transport links and seaside amenities, and to downsizers who value community facilities and independence without garden upkeep. The accommodation is compact and best suited to buyers who prioritise location and communal support over large internal space.
