Property description

Situated within the esteemed McCarthy & Stone retirement development, this expansive apartment resides on the second floor, boasting two spacious double bedrooms and two meticulously designed bathrooms tailored for convenience. The living and dining area offers ample space, complemented by a Juliet balcony that adds a touch of charm.

Completed in 2018, this sought-after development maintains its allure, with this particular property maintaining excellent condition throughout. The layout is designed for ease of access, with most rooms branching off from the welcoming entrance hall. Both double bedrooms feature walk-in wardrobes and generous en-suites, with the main bedroom boasting a luxurious walk-in double shower. An additional shower room, equipped with the same deluxe fittings, is conveniently located off the hallway.

The expansive 23 ft living and dining room accommodates both lounging and dining setups, with direct access to the balcony and a well-appointed luxury kitchen. Enjoying views of the meticulously landscaped gardens and the picturesque rivel Ivel, the rear-facing rooms offer a serene ambiance.

Outside, the communal gardens envelop the development on three sides, offering a blend of manicured lawns, paved areas, and flourishing flower beds. Take in the tranquil scenery while seated at the rear of the development, overlooking the river and surrounding fields.

Conveniently positioned within close proximity to major supermarkets, transportation hubs, the town center, medical facilities, and the mainline train station, residents enjoy easy access to essential amenities. The development further enriches the living experience with a bustling residents lounge, a formal reading room, and optional storage facilities available for hire from McCarthy & Stone. Additionally, guests can be accommodated in the pre-bookable guest suite, enhancing the experience for both residents and visitors alike.
