Description
A bright and roomy one double bedroom top floor apartment, offered for sale with no onward chain and enjoying views over roof tops to the hills and countryside. The property boasts a prime location just a short stroll to the town centre where there is a range of independent shops and chain stores, doctor and dentist surgeries as well as a variety of entertainment venues. The apartment is especially for those over 55 years and benefits from uPVC double glazed windows, electric heating and a 24 hour emergency care line as well as a part time development manager. The complex also has a residents lounge with kitchen area used for functions or for family gatherings, a guest suite available for overnight visitors at a nominal fee, attractive communal gardens with seating area and separate drying area plus parking which is on a first come first served basis. The building also has a lift. A viewing is strongly recommended to really appreciate the size, layout and how easily it would make a great lock up and leave UK base or as a main home for those looking for that additional support now and then.
