About
Detailed Description Regency Lodge is a sought after complex of retirement apartments ideally placed just a short walk from the Central Line Station and Queens Road with its shops, cafes, restaurants and Waitrose Supermarket.
This one bedroom top floor apartment is tucked away in a quiet spot within the development, although all facilities are close to hand.
These include a spacious communal lounge, hobby/games room, library, laundry with lift service, landscaped gardens and there is a site manager on site.
Location Buckhurst Hill is a particularly sought after area, being conveniently located for access to the City and West End, whilst being a quieter location with Epping Forest on your doorstep.
Buckhurst Hill has a nice array of independent shops in Queens Road, alongside a Waitrose Supermarket, all just a short stroll away from this development.
Interior This one bedroom purpose built apartment is situated on the 2nd (top) floor of this sought after development.
The accommodation consists of an entrance hall with storage cupboards, a generous lounge which opens to the fitted kitchen, a double bedroom with fitted wardrobes, served by a shower room with a white suite and complementary tiling.
The flat is offered to the market with no chain, and save for a bit of decorating, would make an excellent home.
Exterior Regency Lodge offers beautifully maintained gardens which are well used by residents. There is also a communal lounge with a bar, where many events are held for residents.
The house manager is on call and other facilities include a guest suite, hobby room, hairdressing salon and library. Parking is available in the communal car park on a 1st come, 1st served basis.
