Ready-to-move retirement home with communal facilities and a new boiler.
First-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment, c.439 sq ft
A one-bedroom retirement apartment on the first floor of Owen Court, offered in good decorative order and freshly updated with a new boiler (July 2025). The living room opens to a Juliette balcony that brings in natural light; the layout is practical with a fitted kitchen and bathroom, all arranged over c.439 sq ft. The development, built by McCarthy & Stone, provides lift access and well-kept communal gardens.
Designed for over-60s, the development includes a 24/7 emergency Appello call system, camera entry, visiting development manager, residents’ lounge, guest suite and a communal laundry — helpful conveniences for independent retirement living. Bus services are immediately outside and local shops, healthcare and amenities are within walking distance.
Important practical points: the property is leasehold with about 106 years remaining and an annual service charge of £3,424.92 plus ground rent of £395.00. Heating is by electric storage heaters rather than gas, and the overall floor area is compact at around 439 sq ft, so it suits downsizers or those seeking a low-maintenance base rather than someone needing large living spaces.
This apartment will suit buyers looking for a ready-to-move-into retirement home with on-site support and communal facilities. Be aware of the ongoing service charge and ground rent costs and the electric heating when assessing running costs.
