About
PEACEFUL OVER-55s RETIREMENT APARTMENT – TOWN CENTRE LOCATION A fantastic opportunity to rent a well-presented one-bedroom apartment within a popular over-55s retirement development, offering peaceful and secure community living right in the heart of the town centre.
One of the real advantages of this development is its quiet, mature residential environment.
With occupancy restricted to those aged 55 and over, it is particularly suited to anyone looking for somewhere peaceful, comfortable and well maintained, while still having everything they need close at hand.
Despite the tranquil atmosphere within the development, you are just a short walk from shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities, making this an excellent choice for anyone who prefers to get around on foot and enjoy the convenience of town-centre living.
Residents also benefit from some lovely communal facilities.
There is an enclosed courtyard, providing a pleasant sheltered area particularly useful during the cooler months, together with an open courtyard which is ideal for sitting outside, reading or simply enjoying the sunshine.
The development also has a communal library, where activities and social events are occasionally organised. Residents can get involved as much or as little as they wish.
The development isn’t solely aimed at retired residents either; it can be an excellent option for working professionals aged 55+ who simply appreciate a quieter place to come home to.
The apartment itself comprises a good-sized unfurnished lounge with laminate flooring, together with a separate fitted kitchen complete with white goods, including a washing machine, cooker and fridge freezer.
There is a comfortable bedroom with some furniture provided, while the bathroom has been designed with accessibility in mind.
It features a low-level bath for easier access, together with a wall-mounted handrail to assist with getting in and out, which may be particularly useful for residents with reduced mobility.
Overall, this is a lovely home offering a combination that can be difficult to find: peaceful over-55s community living, useful communal facilities and a highly convenient town-centre location.
Available to residents aged 55 and over. Early viewing is recommended.
