  • 150 years remaining on the lease
  • Located on the ground floor for easy access
  • Being sold chain-free and currently vacant
  • Residents lounge, laundry room and parking to the rear
  • Available to those of retirement age (though formal permission from the landlord can be gained for those over 60 and under the official retirement age)
Situated within the popular Priory Lodge development in West Wickham, this ground floor one-bedroom retirement flat is available with no onward chain and is exclusively for residents of retirement age (please note landlord formal permission can be gained for those over the age of 60). The flat offers well-maintained, step-free living throughout and would be ideal for anyone starting to find their current home a little less manageable, or for families looking for a safe and welcoming environment for their loved ones.

Internally, the flat measures approximately 41.6 square metres and is positioned at the front of the building on the ground floor, offering a pleasant outlook and a little more day-to-day activity which many residents enjoy. You enter the flat into a hallway with two useful storage cupboards and access to all rooms. The reception room is a bright and comfortable space, leading through to a separate kitchen fitted with an electric hob, freestanding fridge freezer, and a waist-height oven and grill — making it easier to use without needing to bend down. This flat is one of the few within the development that benefits from its own washing machine, removing the need to use the shared laundry facilities upstairs if you didn't want to. The wet room is especially suitable for those with limited mobility, with support aids in place and a fully open shower area. The bedroom is a comfortable size with excellent built-in wardrobe storage and currently arranged with a single bed. The flat also benefits from an emergency pull cord system and is presented in good condition throughout, with some flexibility around the inclusion of furniture.

Priory Lodge is a purpose-built retirement development with a friendly and well-run atmosphere. An on-site Lodge Manager is present during weekday hours of 9am-12pm to support residents, and a secure fob-entry system is in place for peace of mind. The communal lounge and kitchen provide a great space to meet neighbours and enjoy social events throughout the year, with direct access to a patio area that's perfect for the warmer months. Residents also have access to further communal grounds at the rear of the building. Parking is available in the residents’ car park to the back, while free on-street parking is conveniently located at the front of the building on Glebe Way. To also note, there is lift access to the upper floor and there is also a guest suite for visitors to use at a chargeable rate.

The property is ideally located for access to everyday essentials and public transport. Local shops and cafes can be found in Coney Hall, West Wickham High Street, and Hayes. A Co-Op convenience store is nearby, while larger supermarkets including Sainsbury’s and M&S are just a short distance away in central West Wickham. The surrounding community is known for its friendly atmosphere and good local bus links, making it easy to stay connected with the area.

The lease has been recently extended by the current owner and now has approximately 150 years remaining. The annual service charge is £3,334, and the ground rent is £225. This is a lovely, well-positioned retirement flat offering comfort, convenience, and peace of mind in later life.
