The property comes with a number of additional benefits that many of the flats in this complex do not have. This includes a double aspect lounge which is extremely light and spacious which opens through to a kitchen which has a window. There is also a modern replacement fitted shower room with new shower unit and new water heater in the airing cupboard, plus an additional storage cupboard which is ideal for storing your vacuum cleaner etc.

The position of this particular flat within the sheltered accommodation building is excellent. Firstly this is in the two story section and thus, a first floor flat, there is no accommodation above making it much quieter and also providing the facility of having its own loft space. Secondly the living area within the apartment is set well back from the main corridor again, making this much quieter than some of the apartments. Finally the first floor is often deemed more secure than a ground floor apartment.

The double aspect for the lounge has lovely views over The Causeway on one side and School Street on the other. Being on the corner there is plenty of activity and opportunities to sit out and watch the world go by.
