A bright one-bedroom retirement apartment on the second floor, offered as a 70% shared ownership share, in a purpose-built block set around well-kept communal gardens. The flat has a comfortable lounge, fitted kitchen, double bedroom and a recently refitted shower room. Gas central heating, double glazing and a lift to the second floor add practical comfort and accessibility.
The development is managed by Anchor Housing Trust, which retains the remaining equity. There is a shared laundry room, non-allocated residents’ parking to the front, and generous communal grounds to the rear. The block dates from the early 1990s and benefits from later double glazing and standard cavity wall insulation.
Important considerations: the property is leasehold with about 55 years remaining, which may limit mortgage options and could require early lease extension for many lenders. The sale is for a 70% share; Anchor retains the remaining share and service charges/management arrangements apply. Suited to buyers over 60 seeking affordable, low-maintenance living close to local amenities and good transport links.
