Summary - The Meads, Ongar Road, Brentwood CM15 9GL
2 bed 2 bath Retirement Property
Low-maintenance, wheelchair-accessible over-55s apartment with gated parking.
Two double bedrooms, principal bedroom with ensuite
A purpose-built, first-floor retirement flat in a town-centre development, offering low-maintenance living for the over-55s. The apartment has two double bedrooms (one ensuite), a generous living room opening to a modern kitchen, and level access throughout with lift service — convenient for mobility needs and visitors.
Practical communal features include secure gated residents’ parking, communal gardens and lounge, on-site house manager, guest suite and laundry facilities. The long lease (c.286 years remaining), wheelchair accessibility and no onward chain make this a straightforward purchase for downsizers or buyers seeking retirement-sector rental income.
Costs and local context to note: the current annual service charge is £4,454.41 (above average) and ground rent is £250 per year. The property sits in a very affluent area with excellent mobile and fast broadband, but recorded local crime levels are very high, which may concern some buyers.
Internally the décor is neutral and the flat appears well presented; it suits buyers who want a ready-to-move-in retirement home or a light-refurb project to personalise. Overall floor area is modest (about 611 sq ft), so this will particularly suit downsizers seeking manageable space close to town amenities.
