Designed for comfortable retirement living, this ground-floor two-bedroom apartment in Catherine Place offers practical, low-maintenance accommodation with direct patio access to landscaped communal gardens. The principal bedroom includes a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite shower; a second double bedroom and a guest shower room complete the layout, all arranged around a spacious living room that benefits from natural light and garden views.
The development provides strong onsite support and security: a House Manager during office hours, 24-hour emergency call system, intruder alarms, video door entry linked to the TV, lift access and a communal lounge with free Wi‑Fi. A hotel-style guest suite is available for visitors and there are extensive communal gardens for socialising. Pets are allowed and parking spaces can be purchased if required.
Practical considerations are transparent. The apartment is leasehold (999 years from 2021) with an annual service charge of £4,233.94 and ground rent of £495 pa; these cover communal maintenance, the emergency system and building insurance. Heating is by electric room heaters and mains electricity is the fuel source. The area is very affluent with good transport links, but recorded local crime is above average — the strong onsite security does mitigate this.
This home will suit someone seeking an easy-to-manage, sociable retirement base close to Melton Mowbray town centre amenities, markets and rail links. It offers ready-to-live-in accommodation with modern fittings and communal support, while buyers should budget for the service charge, ground rent and the higher-than-average crime level in the neighbourhood.
