This vacant, chain-free retirement flat sits within a purpose-built modern block close to Broomhill centre and the Botanical Gardens — ideal for over-55s seeking a low-hassle, community-focused home. The flat has been newly decorated and carpeted throughout, with two double bedrooms, a bright bay-fronted living/dining room and a well-equipped kitchen. The long lease (171 years remaining) and council tax band A add practical reassurance.
Residents benefit from extensive, well-kept communal gardens, on-site parking for residents and visitors (not guaranteed), a house manager, resident lounge, laundry, guest suite and a 24-hour emergency call system — useful for peace of mind and social living. The property is compact at about 505 sq ft, so it suits buyers looking to downsize rather than those needing large storage or entertaining space.
Notable running costs include an average service charge of £290 per month (covers many communal services and utilities) and electric storage heating rather than gas central heating, which can affect energy bills. Overall, this is a well-presented, low-maintenance retirement flat in an affluent, well-connected S10 location — best for downsizers seeking community facilities and convenience rather than extensive private outdoor space.
