A ground-floor one-bedroom apartment in a popular over-55s development just steps from Skegness seafront and town centre. The flat has a lounge, fitted kitchen, bedroom with built-in wardrobes, shower/wet room and useful entrance storage. uPVC double glazing and electric heating keep running costs straightforward, and there is no upward chain.
Residents benefit from onsite services including a site manager with 24-hour emergency contact, communal lounge, laundry, guest accommodation and maintained communal gardens. Allocated parking is available for a small annual fee and an adjacent integral store provides extra space. The long lease (effectively 964 years remaining from the 999-year term) gives security for the future.
Notable costs and local factors are important to consider: the service charge is currently around £2,300 per year and ground rent £162 per year; the development is in an area recorded as very deprived with very high local crime levels. The apartment’s kitchen dates to the 1980s and would benefit from updating if you prefer modern finishes. Overall this is a convenient, low-maintenance retirement home with communal support, close to amenities and the seafront.
