Leonard Hackett Court was constructed to provide affordable retirement housing and offers truly outstanding value for money. The development comprises 36 one and two bed shared equity Leasehold retirement properties (one party must be age 60+); surrounded by attractive landscaped gardens with bench seating available to both the front and rear gardens.
The apartments benefit from having lift access and for added convenience the lift goes to the parking area and rear communal garden. A local manager takes care of buildings and grounds maintenance, as well as providing further help and support if required. There is also the added reassurance of Anchor's 24 hour emergency call system, should it ever be needed.
The accommodation is bright and airy with large windows, enjoying very pleasant views over the rear communal gardens. The room layout comprises of an entrance hall with large walk in storage cupboard and additional airing cupboard; a dual aspect lounge/dining room, kitchen, bedroom and shower/wet room. Further advantages include secure communal door intercom system, gas central heating, UPVC double glazed windows, newly fitted carpets, fitted wardrobe and a residents parking area (first come first serve availability).
In support of a more affordable purchase, the Lease dictates that the apartment must be offered on a 70% shared equity basis, with no rent payable on the remaining 30%. To comply, the apartment has had a professional valuation completed and can now be purchased at a fixed price of £56,000 (Subject to meeting the Managing Agents capacity criteria). The property is available with no forward chain.
