A well-presented two-bedroom ground-floor retirement apartment in the heart of Ludlow, offered chain-free and recently modernised. The accommodation includes an entrance porch, living/dining room, modern kitchen, two bedrooms and an upgraded shower room. Double glazing, upgraded electric heating and broadband capability make the flat comfortable and ready to move into.
The development provides communal gardens, a part-time house manager and a 24-hour careline — practical features for independent retirees who want town-centre convenience with support on hand. The property’s central location places shops, cafes and services within easy walking distance.
Buyers should note the lease has around 60 years remaining. This is a material issue: some mortgage lenders may refuse to lend on a lease of this length, and the limited term will affect resale value. Annual service charge and ground rent apply (2025/26 service charge £2,571.50; ground rent £96 pa). The apartment is compact at about 540 sq ft, so it suits those seeking manageable, single-floor retirement living rather than generous space.
Overall, this is a practical, low-maintenance retirement home with modern fittings and town-centre access. It will appeal to buyers prioritising convenience and communal support, provided they investigate leasehold finance and long-term ownership implications before committing.
