Secure, low-maintenance over‑60s living near marinas and village amenities.
Second-floor retirement apartment with lift access
Comfortable one-bedroom second-floor apartment in a purpose-built retirement court, conveniently placed in Hamble village with partial views across Southampton Water. The apartment offers independent living with access to communal facilities including a lounge, conservatory, landscaped gardens and on-site parking, plus a part-time warden and 24-hour emergency call system for added reassurance.
The accommodation is compact (approximately 423 sq ft) and practical: a living/dining room with internal kitchen window, a bedroom with built-in wardrobe and a modern shower room. The block benefits from a lift, double glazing and well-maintained external grounds, making day-to-day life straightforward for over-60s seeking a low‑maintenance home close to marinas, shops and transport links.
Important practical points: heating is by electric storage heaters and the property is leasehold with an average service charge of about £280 per month (approx. £3,360 pa) covering communal upkeep, water rates, buildings insurance and staffing. There is also a sinking fund payable on future sale. The apartment is chain free, but buyers should note the compact size when considering furniture and storage needs.
This is a sensible choice for downsizers wanting a secure, sociable retirement setting in a very affluent area of coastal Hampshire. It suits someone prioritising community facilities and location over large living spaces; refurbishment potential exists if you want to personalise the interior.
