Who is it for? Kingswood is for owners aged 55 or older who appreciate a pleasant living environment. Owners can be perfectly healthy but if needed there is a low level care available to encourage independent living for as long as possible.

Starcare provide this low level care on a 24 7 basis. Examples of low care provision are medicine prompts , assistance with getting in and out of bed, showering etc. Starcare do not provide nursing care.

The scheme is full evacuation which means if there is a fire the lifts will be out of operation so you must be able to walk down the stairs independently. If this sounds like you then we can‘t recommend a viewing highly enough.

THE KINGSWOOD LIFESTYLE This has to be one of the best complexes for the over 55‘s in and around Chester. The setting is unique gardens and a field to the front and landscaped gardens to both sides behind! There is also a growing area.

The communal facilities could rival any and could fairly be described as modern, stylish and contemporary. You will find a reception area, the bistro, a meeting room, a spacious lounge, craft room and scooter store. The function room and toilets are just past the bistro to your left and like all the communal areas, they are immaculately kept!

There are lifts to the 1st floor where you will find a particularly well stocked library that overlooks the reception area. Number 53 is a short walk along the carpeted and naturally bright hallway.

The apartment starts with a spacious entrance hall with timber doors that open to all rooms including the spacious Jack and Jill shower room.

The living room starts with the lounge area which enjoys one of the most pleasing outlooks you could hope to find and a covered balcony to enjoy the outdoors from the comfort of your own apartment. The kitchen is spacious with a range of timber effect units with a fan assisted oven and a 4 ring electric halogen hob. There is space for a dish washer and for a fridge freezer.

The master and second bedroom also enjoy the same orientation as the lounge. The master bedroom opens into a spacious wet room with a chrome thermostatic shower that has been set in the tiling. The second bedroom makes for a particularly pleasing study hobby room guest bedroom.

This is a complex and apartment that you have to see and it is a winning combination that could rival any anywhere. On top of that we are told the staff are just as nice as they are professional. This lovely apartment is likely to sell fast so call us now to arrange a viewing.
