Set within the purpose-built William Grange development, this two-bedroom first-floor apartment is designed for independent over-60s seeking a low-maintenance, community-focused home close to Hereford city centre. The layout is practical, with a walk-out balcony from the living room, a modern fitted kitchen and an ensuite to the principal bedroom. Security and peace of mind are strong features, with a house manager, camera-entry system, intruder and smoke alarms, and a 24-hour emergency call service.
Residents benefit from well-kept communal facilities: landscaped gardens maintained for you, a homeowners’ lounge, a bookable guest suite for visiting family, lift access to all floors and an allocated off-street parking space close to the entrance. Practical additions include full-fibre broadband, ample communal services covered by the service charge, and a very long lease remaining (approximately 994 years).
Be aware of ongoing costs and some running characteristics. The service charge of £3,538.21pa and annual ground rent of £495 cover communal upkeep and services but are material outgoings to factor into affordability. Heating is electric via room heaters rather than gas central heating, which can affect running costs depending on usage and tariff. The property’s decor and balcony are described as dated and may benefit from light modernisation to suit personal tastes.
This apartment suits downsizers wanting community, convenience and support without full-time care responsibilities. It offers straightforward move-in readiness with options to refresh the interior over time, while providing strong communal amenities and long-term tenure security.
