This well-presented two-bedroom end-of-terrace sits in a peaceful over-55s development in Christs Hospital and is offered chain free. Recently renovated throughout, it is ready to move into with modern fittings, underfloor heating in the kitchen and shower rooms, and fitted wardrobes in both bedrooms. A conservatory and a generous lounge/dining area provide comfortable living space for relaxing or hosting visitors.
Practical benefits include a large en-bloc garage, communal gardens, fast broadband and low local crime. The property is a short walk from the Downs Link and Christs Hospital station, making it easy to access local services and travel further afield. At about 1,012 sq ft, the layout feels spacious for a retirement home.
Important costs and technical details to note: the home is leasehold with 122 years remaining and a service charge of £6,800 per year (above average). Heating is by electric storage heaters, which can increase running costs compared with gas. Council tax is described as expensive. Prospective buyers should verify lease terms, service charge coverage and any communal obligations before proceeding.
Overall, this cottage-style property will suit someone wanting a turnkey, low-maintenance retirement home in a village setting with good local amenities and easy rail access. It combines characterful Tudor Revival exterior styling with modern interior finishes, but does carry above-average communal charges and electric heating costs to consider.
