A first-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment in Nightingale Lodge, offered chain-free and designed for independent over-60s. The layout includes an entrance hall, shower room, lounge-diner, fitted kitchen and bedroom with fitted wardrobes — comfortable living space of about 539 sq ft.
The building, completed in the mid-2000s by Churchill Retirement Living, provides communal facilities including a lift, laundry, guest suite, communal gardens and off-street parking. The apartment is a short walk from local shops, doctor surgeries and public transport links, making everyday errands straightforward.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold property with around 107 years remaining. Annual service charges average £2,800 and ground rent is £1,400, which are significant ongoing costs. Heating is by electric room heaters rather than a communal or gas system, so running costs should be checked.
This property suits buyers looking to downsize into a managed retirement development with ready-made communal facilities and low local crime. It offers move-in convenience and a social setting, with scope to personalise the interior without major structural works.
