Description
Guide Price £425,000 – £450,000 - Set within the highly regarded McCarthy & Stone development known as Poets Place, IG10, is this spacious two bedroom ground floor retirement apartment, offered with no onward chain and the benefit of its own private balcony.
At approximately 920 sq ft, excluding the balcony, this is understood to be one of the larger apartments within the development, offering an excellent amount of space for independent retirement living.
Designed for the over 60s, the apartment has a practical and comfortable layout, with a welcoming entrance hall, generous living/dining room, separate kitchen, utility room, two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a dressing room off the main bedroom. The main bedroom also benefits from an en suite bathroom, while the second bedroom provides excellent additional space for guests, hobbies or day to day flexibility.
One of the standout features of this apartment is the private balcony, accessed from the living/dining room, creating a pleasant outside seating area and a lovely extension of the main living space. The property also benefits from underfloor heating, a secure camera entry system, Sky connection points in the living room and a 24 hour emergency call system for peace of mind.
Poets Place has been carefully designed with retirement living in mind. Residents have access to a communal lounge, ideal for socialising with neighbours, friends and family, along with neatly maintained communal gardens. There is also a dedicated House Manager on site Monday to Friday, along with a guest suite which visiting family members can book for a nominal cost.
The location is another major advantage. Poets Place is well placed for Loughton High Road, offering a range of shops, cafés, restaurants and local amenities. Loughton Station is also close by, providing Central Line access into London, while a large Sainsbury’s is nearby for everyday shopping. For those who enjoy green open spaces, Epping Forest and surrounding parks offer lovely places for walks and fresh air.
The lease is understood to be over 990 years. The monthly maintenance charge is currently £382.97, equating to £4,595.64 per annum. Ground rent is currently £247.50 half yearly, equating to £495 per annum.
