Each apartment is equipped with an emergency pull cord to summon assistance if required, with the emphasis being on independent living within a peaceful and sociable environment.

The views to the rear are particularly pleasant looking down to an old footbridge crossing the Staffs/Worcs Canal where it is possible to watch the boats go by from time to time. There are also more distant views across countryside in the direction of Kinver.


The entrance hall gives way to a spacious living room with Adam style fire surround and marbled hearth suitable for electric fire. Sliding double glazed patio doors give way to the Juliette balcony from where the views can be admired and the living room also incorporates an open plan kitchen area with pine wall and base cabinets and appliances to include electric oven, four ring hob, filter hood, refrigerator and free-standing Bosch automatic washing machine.

The spacious double bedroom has twin in-built double wardrobes and also enjoys a view down towards the canal whilst a further door gives direct en-suite access through to the bathroom.

Also accessible from the hallway (for the benefit of visitors), the bathroom is of good proportions with vanity unit incorporating wash hand basin and close coupled w.c, fitted mirror-panelled wall cabinets and light-mirror, plus bath in tiled surround with mixer shower above.

A service charge is payable, in the current year ?236 per calendar month (?2832 pa), which covers maintenance of the building and grounds plus heating and lighting of communal areas, water rates and buildings insurance.

The village of Cookley has an excellent range of amenities to include post office, doctors surgery, church, late night convenient store, pubs, village sports & social club plus primary school. The canal runs straight through the village to provide numerous picturesque walks in the beautiful countryside to be found between Kinver and Wolverley. "
