This has to be one of the most appealing one bedroom apartments
within this town centre retirement development which is ideally
placed for the short walk into the High Street and all the
facilities available.
Not only is the apartment on the ground floor but it also has its
own uPVC double doors leading out from the lounge into the communal
gardens where there is a small patio with space for a table and
chairs. In addition, being positioned towards the rear of the
building, its front door is just 20 feet away from the secondary
side entrance door located by the car park.
Over the course of the last few years there have been several
improvements including new UPVC double glazed windows, replacement
electric heaters to ensure heat is available on demand, a refitted
shower room and a reconfigured lounge and kitchen area so that
there is an enhanced light and airy feel to the main living
area.
During the course of the improvements the current owners
thoughtfully chose fittings to ensure the apartment is as
economical as it could be, to help keep running costs as low as
possible. These simple but thoughtful changes included fitting
individual water heaters to each hot tap, filtered drinking water,
LED lighting and a humidity-controlled extractor fan and a timed
electric towel rail in the shower room. During the preparations for
the project, the current owners received landlords permission to
have cavity wall and underfloor insulation fitted but did not
progress it.
It is also worth noting there is a built in mirror fronted wardrobe
in the bedroom. In the kitchen the cream coloured units have real
hardwood tops incorporating an Induction hob and a Halogen Oven
plus there is a separate Bosch fridge freezer.
It is without doubt that we would recommend this retirement
apartment for consideration.
