A fantastic opportunity to acquire a one-bedroom retirement apartment within the well-established Norbury Court development in Fairwater, offering an excellent combination of independent living, community facilities and a convenient location close to everyday amenities and transport links.
IMPORTANT RESALE INFORMATION: This property forms part of a 70% retirement-property resale scheme. The final sale price is determined by reference to 70% of an independent open-market valuation arranged through Wales & West Housing.
This particular apartment is now ready for modernisation, providing the incoming owner with a genuine opportunity to create a home tailored entirely to their own tastes and requirements. With well-proportioned accommodation, excellent storage and the benefit of being situated within a purpose-designed retirement development, this is an exciting blank canvas in a popular Cardiff suburb.
The property is approached through its own entrance hallway, with a staircase leading to the main accommodation above. Once upstairs, the apartment provides a welcoming entrance hall with access to all principal rooms, including a generously proportioned lounge, separate galley-style kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom.
The lounge provides a comfortable principal living space and also benefits from useful built-in storage, making it an ideal room for relaxing, entertaining friends or simply enjoying day-to-day life. The separate kitchen is arranged in a practical galley-style layout and offers the perfect opportunity for the new owner to install a modern kitchen designed around their own needs.
The bedroom is a good-sized double, while the bathroom is conveniently positioned from the main hallway. There is also an additional storage cupboard within the hallway, which is particularly useful for keeping towels, household essentials and other items neatly tucked away.
The apartment does require modernisation, particularly within the kitchen and bathroom, but this should be viewed as an opportunity rather than a drawback. The accommodation provides a blank canvas, allowing a new owner to introduce their preferred kitchen, bathroom, flooring, decoration and finishing touches without having to compromise on somebody else's choices.
Norbury Court is an established retirement development situated at the top of Bailey Close, just off Norbury Road in Fairwater. The development was built in 1987 and comprises a small collection of retirement apartments, creating a more intimate and community-focused environment than many larger retirement schemes. Current information records 19 apartments, comprising one- and two-bedroom homes, with resident management arrangements and a Careline alarm service.
One of the major attractions of Norbury Court is the balance between privacy and community. Residents have their own independent homes while also having access to communal facilities, including a residents' lounge, laundry and guest facilities. The communal lounge provides a valuable social space, with information on the development highlighting regular coffee mornings and other social gatherings, parties, day trips and meals out. Residents can therefore enjoy as much or as little social interaction as they wish.
The development also benefits from resident management arrangements and a Careline alarm service, providing additional reassurance while allowing residents to maintain their independence. The scheme is situated on a generally level site, with the surrounding area also relatively flat, making the location particularly practical for those who enjoy getting out and about on foot.
There is also communal parking, while the development's established communal areas provide residents with additional shared space outside their individual apartments. Previous sales within Norbury Court have also highlighted the development's communal gardens, parking and laundry facilities.
The location is another major attraction. Norbury Court sits within Fairwater, a popular residential suburb to the west of Cardiff, approximately three miles from Cardiff city centre and around a mile from St Fagans and its renowned castle and museum. The development's own information describes the area as being particularly well served by both bus and rail
