This one-bedroom first-floor retirement apartment sits within the Restharrow development (built 1988) and offers a compact, low-maintenance home for downsizers. The building includes communal gardens, residents’ lounge, guest room, on-site development manager and a 24-hour Appello emergency call system, making it suited to someone seeking community-focused, managed living.
The property footprint is small (approx. 413 sq ft) with an open-plan kitchenette, lounge, one bedroom and bathroom. Heating is via electric storage heaters and windows are double glazed (install date unknown). The flat faces communal parking and landscaped grounds; room sizes are modest and the interior will likely need updating to modern tastes.
This listing is available through the Home for Life plan from Homewise for purchasers aged 60+ (Lifetime Lease example price £56,000 based on a typical 30% saving). Market value is shown as £80,000; actual Lifetime Lease cost varies by age, circumstances and the chosen safeguarded share (up to 50%). Purchase is subject to property and lease review—call Homewise or use their online calculator for a personalised quote.
Note practical considerations: the area is characterised as a cosmopolitan, student-heavy neighbourhood with above-average crime and local deprivation indicators. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and the site has very large communal grounds, but the flat itself is small and may require internal updating or modernisation.
