A bright, second-floor retirement apartment in a modern 2003 development on Green Lanes, offered chain free. The flat provides a double bedroom with built-in storage, a spacious reception room, fitted kitchen and a bathroom — an uncomplicated, low-maintenance home suited to downsizers or a single occupant. Communal amenities include a lounge, laundry room, paved courtyard garden, estate manager and resident/visitor parking.
Practical running costs and tenure are straightforward: leasehold with about 102 years remaining, an annual ground rent of £359 and electric storage heating. Broadband is very slow in the area and heating is electric-only, which may affect running costs and internet-dependent working or streaming.
The apartment is well presented and benefits from double glazing, off-street parking and a safe, well-kept communal setting close to shops, cafés and transport links. Buyers should note this is a retirement scheme with communal facilities and rules, and the property will suit someone seeking convenience and community rather than a full-time family home or high-speed connectivity.
Overall this is a practical, ready-to-move-into retirement flat with communal support and parking, best for those prioritising location, communal amenities and low-maintenance living rather than high-performance heating or broadband.
