Do you know what people always say to me? They say, "I would love a retirement apartment but they are all so dated and pokey, I just don't have it in me to renovate one." Well friends, today is your lucky day! This could be the finest retirement apartment on the market in M33 with potentially the best location to boot as well as being chain free!
Retirement should be about relaxing and enjoying yourself not fretting about redecorating, modernising or worse when the boiler will blow. The vendors of this apartment have done all the heavy lifting for you meaning you can simply move in and hang up your pictures. We're talking the boring stuff like rewiring, new boiler and plumbing for the washing machine to the nice stuff like a high end kitchen, new shower room and redecorating throughout.
The property is part of the Home Laurel House on Whitehall Road. This development was built in 1987 and is the perfect spot for transport links like the major bus routes, Brooklands Metrolink stop, cycle path along the Canal and motorway links but also for easy access to the shops, restaurants, cafes and gyms close by as well.
Sat on the first floor, number 16 has a corner position meaning you only have neighbours on one side and is at the end of the corridor close to the stairs for easy access but there is also a lift on the floor. You enter the apartment into the spacious hallway and straight away can see how it will be larger than most of the other apartments in the block. The hallway provides access to all of the rooms and has plenty of space for a sideboard or cabinet as well as space for coats. There are two storage cupboards (one with a washing machine in!) and a utility room with space for further white goods and pantry space. The living room and kitchen space is over 22ft long and has been thoroughly modernised to a high a standard with quartz worktop and integrated appliances. The room is bathed in natural light and the décor has been done tastefully to make the space feel even larger!
The two double bedrooms are a great size, both with built in storage which many apartments simply can't offer. The vendors currently use the second bedroom as a dining room which shows off the versatility of the apartment and also means you can keep hosting Christmas dinner! Finally, you have the modern shower suite which has a high end, boutique hotel feel to it.
The development itself has the usual features like maintained gardens around the block (ideal for sun chasing!), communal lounge for hosting occasional events with the last one being a Macmillan charity evening and residential parking to the slightly more unique communal laundry room (even though you have your own washing machine you could make use of the tumble driers) and storage room for luggage on the first floor.
So now is the time, if you have been waiting for the perfect over 60's apartment to come to the market you have just found it! Book your viewing today and quote GY0737.

Vendor's favourite features: “The joy of this apartment is the convenient location and the fact that it’s very quiet here.
