About
Beck Lodge is a popular Churchill over 60's retirement development with 46 one and two bedroom apartments.
The apartment itself is situated on the first floor right at the end of the building, and enjoys those fantastic views.
The front door opens into a spacious hallway with a useful walk-in storage cupboard housing the meters and providing excellent practical storage.
The bedroom is a generous double and features a large walk-in wardrobe with hanging rails and shelving.
The shower room is fully tiled and well-fitted, with built-in storage, non-slip flooring and a chrome heated towel rail.
The living room is a real highlight, leading onto the balcony providing those glorious views, also an electric fireplace creating a cosy focal point.
A glazed door leads through to the kitchen, which is fitted with light grey gloss units and integrated appliances including a fridge/freezer, electric oven, hob and washer/dryer, keeping everything neat and streamlined.
A double-glazed window to the rear provides natural light.
Set opposite the M&S Simply Food and within easy reach of a wide range of local shops and amenities, the location is both convenient and well-connected.
Swanwick train station is also just a short walk away. Residents benefit from attractive communal grounds and a car park with residence parking at the rear of the building.
Inside the building is a welcoming residents’ lounge and coffee bar, a real hub of the community where you can join in organised social events or simply relax and enjoy watching the world go by.
Pets are also welcome at Beck Lodge. Beck Lodge benefits from the reassurance of an on-site Lodge Manager, responsible for the smooth and effective day-to-day running of the development.
They are on hand to help with everyday queries, oversee the communal areas and can even keep an eye on your apartment if you are away, offering genuine peace of mind for safe and secure retirement living.
