About this home

Perfectly placed in the main building at Bishopstoke Park and served by a lift, 56 Garnier Drive offers easy, low-maintenance living with the bonus of two balconies and lovely views. The welcoming hallway provides excellent everyday practicality with two double storage cupboards.

The dual-aspect living/dining room is bright and comfortable, opening to a small balcony ideal for a morning coffee. Glazed double doors lead to the kitchen, which feels especially airy thanks to a large window overlooking the sensory gardens. A full suite of integrated appliances includes an oven, microwave, fridge/freezer, washing machine, slimline dishwasher and induction hob-everything neatly to hand.

The bedroom features built-in wardrobes and a dressing area with an additional utilities/storage cupboard. There are double doors opening to a larger private balcony with space for a bistro table and chairs, offering an outlook over the rear courtyard-a lovely spot to sit out and see the comings and goings.

As part of Bishopstoke Park's welcoming community for the over 65s, residents can dip in and out of superb on-site amenities: restaurant and bar, wellness centre with pool, sauna, steam room and gym, hair salon, village shop, library and beautifully maintained grounds with woodland walks. Flexible care and housekeeping packages are available should your needs change over time.
