Set in the heart of Newbury, this second-floor retirement apartment offers a practical, low-hassle base for town-centre living. The bright living/dining room overlooks well-kept communal gardens, and the recently refitted shower room brings a fresh, modern finish. A lift, on-site manager and 24-hour call system give reassurance and easy access to all floors.
The flat is chain-free with an exceptionally long lease (circa 999 years) and residents’ parking. Its central position places shops, cafés and the Kennet and Avon canal a short walk away, while fast rail links to London and nearby road connections make visits to family and services straightforward. A virtual tour is available for an immediate preview.
Practical points to note: heating is by electric storage heaters and the annual service charge is £1,596. The development is in a lively town-centre setting where local crime rates are higher than average — worth considering for those prioritising absolute quiet or security. Council tax is modest and the property has double glazing and recent build-era insulation assumptions.
Overall this is a well-presented, low-maintenance retirement apartment for someone wanting central convenience, communal support and straightforward access, with some trade-offs in heating type and neighbourhood activity levels.
