Compact, secure apartment with communal facilities and nearby shops and rail links.
First-floor retirement flat with private balcony
One of only two first-floor retirement apartments in this secure Bourne Court block, this chain-free two-bedroom flat offers manageable living in Caterham town. A private balcony, direct lift access, communal gardens and residents’ facilities including lounge, laundry and on-site house manager make daily life straightforward. The flat includes pull-cord alarms linked to Careline for added peace of mind and comes with off-street resident parking.
The accommodation is compact (approximately 554 sq ft) and arranged in a traditional layout: entrance hall with storage cupboards, front-aspect lounge with dining space, fitted kitchen, bathroom and two double bedrooms (one with balcony access). The bathroom and heating (electric room heaters) are functional but dated, offering clear scope to upgrade and install a shower if desired. Double glazing is in place though install dates are unknown.
Buyers should note the practical drawbacks: a relatively high service charge (£5,478) and an expensive annual ground rent (£582), plus room heaters rather than central heating. The lease has about 93 years remaining and the property is offered free of chain. The immediate area records higher crime levels, though the building benefits from gated entry and a security entry system.
This flat will suit a retiree or downsizer seeking convenience, on-site support and low-maintenance communal grounds rather than a buyer wanting large open-plan living or a long-term renovation project. Good local amenities, reliable rail links into London and easy access to the Surrey Hills add to the location appeal.
