A ground-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment in Aragon Court offering patio access to well-kept communal gardens. Built by McCarthy & Stone in 2006, the flat is presented in clean, habitable condition with a modern fitted kitchen and a medium-sized living room receiving good natural light. The compact layout (approximately 472 sq ft) is ideal for a single occupant or couple seeking low-maintenance living near Hadleigh town facilities.
Residents benefit from dedicated on-site support: a Development Manager, 24-hour Appello emergency call system, lift access to all floors, communal lounge and laundry, plus a guest suite. The development’s minimum age requirement is 60 (or one occupant 60 and the other 55), making it specifically suited to downsizers and those seeking retirement community amenities and security.
Practical considerations: the property is leasehold with around 106 years remaining (125-year lease from 2006). Annual service charge is £3,259.18 and ground rent £395 — factor these into ongoing costs. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the main fuel is electricity; while double glazing is installed, some components pre-date 2002. Local crime levels are reported as high, although the building’s security and emergency systems mitigate some concerns.
This apartment offers straightforward retirement living with communal support and garden access at a competitive price. Buyers should budget for service charges, ground rent and potentially higher energy bills due to electric heating, but will gain a comfortable, low-upkeep home in a purpose-built retirement development.
