Second-floor one-bedroom close to Blenheim Gardens, ideal low-maintenance retirement base.
Purpose-built over‑60s development with onsite management and Careline
This second-floor, one-bedroom apartment in Carlton Court was built in 2004 and is designed for residents aged 60+. The open-plan living/dining room has a Juliet balcony that brings in light, while the double bedroom includes built-in wardrobes. Lift access, a mobility scooter shelter and residents’ parking make daily life easy. The bathroom has a walk-in shower and the kitchen is fitted for practical use; the apartment is an average-sized 458 sq ft and suits someone wanting a low-maintenance home close to town. Blenheim Gardens is directly opposite and shops, cafes and transport are within easy walking distance. Practical costs and constraints are important: the property is leasehold with an annual service charge of £3,249.52 and ground rent of £375. Heating is via electric storage heaters; broadband speeds are average and there is a medium flood risk. The area records higher crime levels than average, so buyers should factor local security and insurance into their decision. Carlton Court offers community activities, onsite management and a 24-hour Careline alarm for reassurance. Guest suites are available for visitors (fee applies), and pets are generally permitted under lease terms. The apartment will suit someone seeking a sociable retirement base in the town centre, with modest modernization potential rather than a major renovation project.
