Exclusively available to residents aged 55 years and over who are no longer in full time employment, the property offers comfortable, secure and low maintenance living in a friendly community setting.
Located on the first floor, the apartment is light and airy throughout and benefits from a practical layout where all rooms are separate.
The accommodation comprises a welcoming entrance hallway with emergency pull cords, which are fitted in every room to provide added peace of mind.
The living and dining room is a particularly pleasant space, featuring French doors that open out onto a balcony area, allowing natural light to flow in and creating a lovely spot to sit and relax.

The bedroom is a comfortable double and provides a calm and private retreat, while the newly fitted wet room has been finished to a contemporary standard and adds further practicality and ease of use.

A parking space is also included, adding to the convenience of the property.
Residents of the development enjoy access to a spacious communal lounge, which is regularly used for morning coffee, social events and meetings, helping to foster a strong sense of community.
