This bright, south-facing second-floor apartment in Moreton Hall offers secure, low-maintenance living for the over-55s. Built in 2010 and set within a purpose-built block with lift access, it presents light, airy rooms, two good bedrooms and a wet room — ready to move into with no onward chain.
The development provides extensive on-site support and amenities including 24-hour care, call alarms in every apartment, communal south-facing gardens, a café and hair salon. The apartment benefits from a generous entrance hall with cloakroom, a well-appointed kitchen and a Juliet balcony overlooking the nearby school. One allocated parking space and excellent local transport links add practical convenience.
Important cost and tenure points: this is a 75% shared ownership leasehold (112 years remaining) with a substantial annual/service charge (listed at £9,556.20). A weekly core care charge and a minimum care requirement (four hours per week) apply; additional care is charged hourly. Heating is via a communal radiator scheme and utilities are included within the service charge, but fees make ongoing costs higher than typical owner-occupied flats.
This apartment will suit buyers seeking secure, sociable retirement living who value on-site support and communal amenities. It is less suitable for those wanting full homeownership independence or low monthly costs, given the shared ownership arrangement and significant service charges.
