This one-bedroom, first-floor flat in Woodlea Court is tailored for over-55s seeking a low-maintenance base with easy transport links. The block offers lift access, communal gardens, residents’ and visitor parking, a laundry room and a bookable guest room. The apartment’s open-plan lounge/kitchen and double bedroom make practical use of its 448 sq ft.
Practical costs are clear: an 86-year lease remains, annual ground rent currently £75 (scheduled stepped increases in 2028 and beyond), and an average annual service charge of £3,695.76. Council tax is Band C. No onward chain speeds up sale and move-in options.
The building is modern brick and generally well kept, but the apartment itself requires updating — the kitchen dates from mid-20th century with low ceilings, ageing cabinets and appliances. Buyers should allow for refurbishment costs and check the lease profile if concerned about long-term mortgageability.
The location provides good bus routes and easy road access to the A40/M25 and nearby Uxbridge and West Drayton stations. Local shops and amenities are within walking distance, though the wider area records constrained neighbourhood indicators and higher deprivation measures compared with regional averages.
