Well positioned on London Road, directly opposite Withdean Park, a bright two bedroom second floor (lift access) retirement apartment, with lovely communal gardens and lounge.
Set on the second floor of a prestigious warden-assisted purpose-built building opposite Withdean Park, the spacious property offers comfortable and well-designed living throughout. All rooms lead off a sizeable and welcoming hallway, providing a sense of space and natural flow. The good-sized lounge enjoys plenty of natural light, creating a bright and inviting living area, while the separate kitchen features modern white units that make excellent use of the available storage. Both double bedrooms are generously sized and benefit from built-in wardrobes, while the fully tiled bathroom includes a contemporary white suite with a shower bath.
For added reassurance, the apartment is equipped with emergency pull cords. Residents can also enjoy the beautifully maintained communal gardens, providing a pleasant outdoor space.
Lilac Court is an exclusive retirement development of 44 apartments for the over 60s, built in 2000. Perfectly positioned on London Road, directly opposite Withdean Park, famed for its stunning collection of lilacs, this iconic development offers a real sense of community. Residents have access to a bright communal lounge and kitchen, as well as practical amenities including a passenger lift to all floors, plenty of communal parking (on a first-come, first-served basis), and a guest suite for visiting family and friends.
Regular bus services on London Road travel into the centre of both Brighton and Hove, the seafront, as well as out of town to the South Downs. Closer to home, nearby Patcham Village and Preston Drove offer a good selection of shops, cafes and restaurants.
