About this home

Located on the first floor of the main building at Bishopstoke Park, this well-positioned two-bedroom apartment combines practical living with a lovely outlook over the communal grounds.  A spacious entrance hall welcomes you in and immediately sets the tone, with built-in storage providing that all-important space to keep things neatly tucked away. The sitting room is well-proportioned and enjoys plenty of natural light, with doors opening onto the south-facing balcony - an ideal place to enjoy a morning coffee or simply watch the activity on the croquet lawn, with the backdrop of The Mount beyond.  Double doors open to the kitchen is a real feature here, which can easily accommodate a table and chairs for informal dining. Fitted with cream gloss units and integrated appliances, it offers a clean, practical space that works well day-to-day.

Both bedrooms are generous doubles, each benefitting from built-in wardrobes and their own en-suite facilities. The main bedroom features an en-suite with a walk-in bath and shower over, while the second bedroom enjoys a step-free shower room - a thoughtful layout that gives flexibility depending on lifestyle or future needs.  Bedroom two also has a pleasant outlook towards the woodland to the side of the building and, being on the top floor has a part sloping ceiling which adds a touch of character.

Having been recently redecorated, the apartment is presented in a fresh, neutral condition, ready for a new owner to move straight in and enjoy. With lift access to all floors, it also remains easily accessible despite its elevated position.

Exclusively for those aged 65 and over, Bishopstoke Park offers a sociable village lifestyle with first-class amenities on the doorstep: restaurant and bar, wellness centre with pool, sauna, steam room and gym, hair salon, village shop, library and beautifully landscaped grounds with woodland walks.
