A comfortable first-floor, one-bedroom apartment in Meadow Court, a purpose-built development for the over-60s, positioned within easy reach of East Grinstead town centre and station. The flat offers a spacious lounge/diner with private balcony, a well-appointed kitchen and a tidy shower room — a straightforward, ready-to-live-in home for downsizers wanting low-maintenance living.
The development provides practical on-site support and communal facilities: a resident House Manager (8am–5pm), emergency cords in rooms, a 24-hour careline, communal lounge, laundry room, guest suite and well-kept gardens. Off-street residents’ parking adds convenience for visitors or owners with cars.
Notable drawbacks are factual and important: the property is leasehold, uses electric storage heaters which can raise running costs compared with gas, and the surrounding area records higher local crime levels. The apartment is an average-sized 538 sq ft and sits within a managed communal block built 2007–2011, so privacy and outlook are mainly to the courtyard and gardens rather than long-distance views.
This chain-free flat will suit buyers seeking a low-maintenance retirement base close to local amenities and transport links, or an investor targeting retirement-housing demand. It requires no major updating but buyers should be comfortable with electric heating and the leasehold tenure before proceeding.
