We have shortlisted some of the main advantages of living in an apartment.

The advantages of living in an apartment

Security

Many apartments benefit from being set on secure, gated grounds. More than this, unlike conventional houses, you will not have to make security arrangements. This is because CCTV cameras and other security measures often come as standard, allowing you to relax without worrying about potential intruders.

At Castle Lodge security is designed in with electrically operated gates, CCTV system and video entry system.

Low maintenance

Apartments are, by nature, less demanding when it comes to maintenance. Plus, some have a maintenance package included so if there are any issues, you will most likely benefit from comprehensive maintenance support. And when it comes to things like mowing the lawn and trimming the hedges, all the hard work will be taken care of for you.

At Castle Lodge the gardens are communally managed, with a parking area that extends to 24 spaces and 10 garages.

A good social scene

Enjoying the exclusivity of a purpose-built gated apartment will mean that you will have a ready-made social life awaiting you. Living in an apartment with a feeling of space, large grounds and privacy, while enjoying the company of neighbours with similar interests, gives you a best of both worlds’ scenario.

At Castle Lodge there is an emphasis on a feeling of space, these light and airy apartments are enhanced by generous ceiling heights and thoughtfully designed to create a calm atmosphere of sophisticated living.

No home improvements needed

Modern apartments offer character with energy efficiency, which means lower running costs. Move-in-ready, and with no need for home improvements, living in and moving to an apartment can be a calmer experience. You don’t have to worry about potential improvements that can be stressful and timely to complete, yet you can creatively decorate your home to your own tastes.

If you have decided that apartment living is your ideal choice then join us this Saturday, 3^rd August for an OPEN DAY at Castle Lodge on Castle Road in Sandal.

Visit between 10am - 12.30pm to explore the remaining apartments for sale and experience the high specifications and the spacious design for yourself.

We look forward to welcoming you to your new home.

I recently sold a property with Elizabeth Cooke as the property consultant and the service has been nothing short of exceptional. Great feedback during the listing phase to keep interest in the property, through to weekly updates and A+ chasing of the chain to keep everything on track in the sale phase. Highly recommend, you're in safe hands here. Stephen 03/02/2026

Alice has been so helpful and friendly with my rental application - no question is ever too much! Karen 03/02/2026

Karen Marijewko was excellent and provided us with weekly updates during a difficult sale due to changes in deeds. Thanks for all your help Michael 03/02/2026

Leah was absolutely amazing throughout my whole house buying process. From start to finish she chased things up and updated me, always had good communication and answered any questions/queries I had promptly. Can’t fault the service at all from Leah, thank you again! Would definitely recommend. Elise 03/02/2026

Liz constantly provided an exceptional service. We had good communication with prompt follow up with all our queries related to the house we were buying. Liz was friendly and helpful throughout the whole process. Thank you Liz. AM 03/02/2026

Quick sale (did we price too low?) but everything went through within weeks. Mandy kept us updated throughout the process. We are now living the life by the coast. Happy retirement to us. Edward 03/02/2026

Alison has been fantastic throughout our home buying journey. As first time buyers, we had plenty of questions, and she supported us every step of the way. She chased things up promptly, kept us updated without us ever needing to ask, and made the whole process feel much less stressful. We’d definitely recommend Richard Kendall and especially Alison to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive estate agent. Hayden 03/02/2026

I cannot recommend Richard Kendall enough, I would urge anyone who is looking to sell their home to use this estate agents. We had previously used 2 estate agents prior to using Richard Kendall, I wish we had gone with Kendalls from the start. Friendly, approachable, will help advise you in all matters. Other estate agents need to benchmark themselves against Richard Kendalls. Jo 03/02/2026
