We have seen quite a few of these apartments over the last 25 years
but this is undoubtedly one of the most prime and uniquely
positioned two bedroom properties within the Park Lodge
development.
With a small part of one external wall adjoining another property,
this newly decorated and re-styled two bedroom, first floor
apartment with a refitted shower room, refitted kitchen and new
flooring throughout is essentially a standalone home within the
complex.
Conveniently positioned just a few steps away from the communal
lounge lift, this lovely light apartment not only enjoys the warmth
afforded from a southerly aspect but there are also windows from
each room overlooking the internal communal garden.
A selection of shops and amenities are adjacent to the complex:
these include opticians, doctors and dental surgeries and
Billericay High Street is just a mile away. A bus stop is
conveniently situated outside Park Lodge with a regular service
into central Billericay and to the station.
PARK LODGE
Built by Wimpey Retirement Homes, the development comprises 79
studio, one bed and two bedroom apartments arranged over two
floors, the upper floors serviced by two lifts. On-site facilities
include a Residents` Lounge, Dining Area, Communal Computer Area,
Laundry and Games Room.
Doors from the main residents` lounge open out to the patio and
communal lawn.
The complex is set within its own landscaped grounds with parking
available for visitors courtesy of two car parks at the front and
rear of the building.
An experienced management company takes care of all external
maintenance offering residents peace of mind without intruding into
their privacy.
Aimed specifically at the over 55s, this is a development which
allows you to live in a self-contained apartment offering total
independence, yet with the added security, should you require it,
and in a location which is convenient for everything.
MAIN ENTRANCE
Main entrance door with secure entry phone intercom link to all the
flats.
Adjacent to the main entrance is the Manager`s Office, with the
area around encompassing the two residents` lounges and dining
area.
A lift from the communal lounge or stairs, positioned just behind
the lift, gives access to the first floor.
THE APARTMENT
Private Entrance door through to:
ENTRANCE HALL
A wood laminate floor is fitted to the hall and extends into the
living room. There is a wall mounted door entry and alarm system
giving a two-way speech communication between you and the warden
and also acting as a link to the main entrance door to let visitors
in.
A huge walk-in cupboard 3ft 8" x 3ft 4" (1.11m x 1.01m) provides
superb storage, plus in addition two further full height built-in
cupboards house the cold water and hot water tank, each cupboard
with shelving for added storage.
LOUNGE/DINER 18ft 2" x 9ft 10" narrowing to 9ft 5" (5.53m x 2.99m
narrowing to 2.87m)
As mentioned, the wood laminate floor flows seamlessly into this
naturally bright living room which embraces the southerly aspect
and affords the natural warmth this aspect provides.
In addition to having plenty of room for a table and chairs
together with the usual furniture for a sitting room, the rear
window overlooks the communal courtyard and garden and there are
double doors opening into the kitchen.
KITCHEN 8ft 5" x 5ft 10" (2.56m x 1.77m)
Well-lit by the rear window and with views of the communal garden,
this recently refurbished kitchen has a tasteful, modern style with
pale grey Shaker style floor and wall cabinets with complimentary
worktops providing plenty of storage while also incorporating an
electric induction hob with integrated extractor hood above and
oven below. There are two spaces housing an undercounter fridge and
Samsung washer dryer that we understand will remain.
BEDROOM ONE 11ft 8" x 8ft 7" (3.55m x 2.61m)
The measurements of this room exclude the double fitted wardrobe
and, just like the lounge and kitchen, there is a window giving
views of the communal gardens and has newly fitted carpet.
BEDROOM TWO 11ft 9" narrowing to 8ft 10" x 7ft (3.58m x 2.69m)
A versatile room that again has a window overlooking the communal
gardens with newly fitted carpet.
BATHROOM
This refitted and fully tiled shower room has a fitted white suite
which comprises a wc with concealed cistern, a washbasin and a
double width walk in shower.
WARDEN CONTROLLED
Emergency alarm pull-cord is provided in the apartment. Pulling the
cord will immediately alert the house manager to your need for
help. When the Manager is off-duty, the system is linked to an
emergency 24 hour Response Unit. Either in person or through the
alarm intercom, you can be sure there will always be someone
available in the event of an emergency day or night, every day of
the year.
Subject to confirmation via the Solicitors we understand the Lease
to be 99 years from 1983.
The current Service Charge is ?175.49 per month and includes the
maintenance of the grounds, the warden and associated 24 hour
emergency careline costs, building`s insurance and water rates.
All the property owner is responsible for is their own heating,
lighting, decoration and maintenance of their own apartment and
Council Tax.
The Ground Rent is ?75 per year.
LOCATION
Adjacent to Park Lodge is the Queens Park shopping centre which
will provide most every day needs. Shops include Co-op supermarket,
Boots the chemist, florist, dry cleaners and a pet shop.
There is also a doctors` surgery, dentist and opticians.

the high street and nearby towns.
