Property Oracle says ..
This one-bedroom retirement apartment in Shortlands, Bromley is presented in good, clean condition. The interior images reveal a functional layout with a modestly sized living area, kitchen, and bedroom. The apartment benefits from access to communal gardens which provide outdoor space.
The apartment’s location is appealing. It’s within walking distance of several primary schools, making it suitable for families. Shortlands station offers train links to central London. However, specific details on local shopping and other amenities are lacking which limits the scope of the review.
Although the images suggest a well-maintained property, it is likely to benefit from some modernisation. The kitchen, in particular, seems dated.
The listing price appears to be competitively priced relative to other listed retirement properties in the area, which are also comparably sized. However, without precise square footage details of these comparison properties, it’s difficult to precisely determine the value for money. The absence of private outdoor space may be a factor for potential buyers who value this feature.
Overall, this retirement apartment offers a convenient location and functional living space, but prospective buyers should factor in potential modernisation costs. The lack of specific details about amenities and the absence of a private garden should also be considered.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
