This one-bedroom apartment in an over-55s development sits a short walk from Poole Park and the town centre, offering low‑maintenance living with communal gardens and attractive local amenities. The lounge/dining room faces west, bringing good afternoon light, and the separate kitchen has glossy units with space for white goods. The generous double bedroom includes fitted wardrobes and there is a large storage cupboard for extra belongings.
The building provides practical retirement-focused features: a passenger lift to all floors, communal lounge, guest suite, laundry room, secure entryphone, mobility scooter storage with power, and a 24‑hour careline pull‑cord system. The development is pet-friendly with managing agent permission and runs regular social activities, which will suit buyers seeking company and organised events close to town.
Important lease and cost facts that affect purchase suitability: the lease has approximately 52 years remaining, which many mortgage lenders regard as problematic and could make mortgage approval difficult or impossible. Service charges are relatively high at £4,154.12 per year and the ground rent is £782.54 per year — both costs buyers must budget for. Heating is by electric storage heaters rather than a communal gas system.
Overall this property is best suited to a cash buyer, a buyer not requiring a mortgage, or an investor aware of lease-length implications. It offers comfortable, low‑upkeep retirement living in a central Poole location, but requires careful financial consideration because of the short lease and above-average service costs.
