This improved first-floor retirement flat sits on Victoria Road, right by the city centre and adjacent to the police station. The one-bedroom apartment has been recently renovated with a refitted kitchen and shower room, double glazing and cavity insulation, making it ready to occupy. A lift, security entryphone and 24-hour emergency alarm link to the on-site House Manager offer practical peace of mind for older residents.
The development is aimed at older residents (females 60+, males 65+) and includes a large communal garden, residents’ lounge, laundry, guest suites and communal parking bays (first come, first served). The apartment is offered chain-free and has an extended lease of approximately 98 years.
Buyers should note the property uses electric storage heating and has an annual service charge (approx. £3,000) and ground rent (approx. £320). Parking is informal and limited; some covered spaces may be rentable when available. The surrounding area reports very high crime levels, so prospective buyers should satisfy themselves on local safety and support arrangements.
Overall this is a convenient, low-maintenance option for someone seeking a centrally located retirement flat with communal facilities and recent internal improvements, but with ongoing service costs, electric heating and limited parking to factor into the decision.
