No Onward Chain and a first-floor position make this two-bedroom retirement apartment a straightforward move for someone seeking independence with built-in support. The property sits within a well-equipped extra-care scheme offering a 24-hour call system, tailored care packages, on-site bistro and hair salon, plus landscaped communal gardens and residents’ lounges.
Internally the layout is traditional and compact (approximately 602 sq ft), with an open-plan living area and kitchen, a double bedroom, a single bedroom and a Jack-and-Jill style wet room. The building is modern (constructed 2007–2011) with double glazing and an EPC rating of B. Heating and hot water are provided via a community mains-gas scheme.
Important practical points: this is a leasehold retirement property with about 107 years remaining and occupancy/age restrictions apply. The local area is classed as deprived and has a very high recorded crime rate, which may be a concern for some buyers. The apartment’s overall size is small, and communal living means service charges and scheme rules will apply.
This home will suit a buyer wanting the reassurance of on-site support and social facilities, close community contacts, and low council tax. It is less suitable for someone needing a large private garden, unrestricted tenure, or a home in a low-crime neighbourhood. For specific details on care packages, occupancy and age restrictions, refer to the managing retirement housing information.
