Thorneycroft is a Retirement Living PLUS development with 24-hour on-site staffing, a CQC-registered care team, an on-site bistro, homeowners’ lounge and a guest suite — useful if additional support or social facilities become important. The long lease (near-999 years) and included services such as communal heating, water for communal areas and a contingency fund offer practical reassurance for longer-term living.
Buyers should note the very high service charge (£12,985.41 pa) and ground rent (£510 pa). The service charge includes many communal costs and one hour’s domestic assistance weekly, but council tax, personal electricity and other external costs are extra. Heating is electric underfloor, which suits the apartment’s layout but may affect running costs for some buyers.
Overall this apartment suits downsizers or those seeking supported independent living in a desirable village setting, close to local shops and regular public transport into Wolverhampton. A viewing is recommended to appreciate the layout, balcony aspect and on-site facilities in person.
