This one-bedroom retirement apartment in the town centre of Melksham offers practical, low-maintenance living for downsizers. Set in a popular development with communal lounge and landscaped gardens, the flat sits in a quiet corner providing extra privacy while still being a short walk from local shops and amenities.
Internally the layout is traditional and ready to move into: a generous living room, fitted kitchen, double bedroom with built-in wardrobe and a bathroom with shower over bath. Electric storage heaters and double glazing (installed after 2002) keep the accommodation straightforward to run, and the 103-year lease offers long-term security for buyers used to leasehold ownership.
Buyers should note this is a leasehold retirement property with service charge and ground rent details to be confirmed; the development has a communal management structure typical of retirement schemes. The area records higher local crime and very deprived local indices, which may be a consideration for some purchasers despite the property’s central position and excellent mobile signal.
Overall this flat suits a buyer seeking a compact, easy-to-manage home close to town facilities and social communal spaces. It presents secure, move-in-ready accommodation with scope for light modernisation if desired, while practical constraints such as electric heating and leasehold costs should be factored into budgeting.
