Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with 109 years remaining and shared ownership means a weekly rent of £72.47 alongside a service charge. The service charge (2025) is £122.97 per week (c. £6,389.44 per year), which is above average and covers communal services and on-site management. The property sits in an area classified as deprived, though public transport links and local amenities are close by.
This apartment is best suited to buyers seeking a low-effort, community-focused retirement base with secure facilities and parking. No onward chain makes for a straightforward purchase, but purchasers should budget for ongoing service charges and the shared-ownership rent when assessing affordability.
