About this home

A spacious and well-presented ground-floor retirement apartment for the over 60s, enjoying an attractive outlook towards the river. The property offers a generous living room, fitted kitchen, double bedroom, modern shower room and the rare benefit of two private balconies. Conveniently positioned for Barnstaple and offered for sale with no onward chain.

Occupying a desirable ground-floor position within this popular retirement development for the over 60s, 7 Port Mill Court is a spacious and well-presented apartment offering generously proportioned accommodation, two private balconies and an attractive outlook towards the river and surrounding trees. Offered to the market with no onward chain, the property provides an excellent opportunity for those seeking comfortable, easily managed retirement living within convenient reach of Barnstaple.

On entering the apartment, a welcoming entrance hallway creates a pleasant first impression and benefits from two useful storage cupboards, providing valuable space for coats and everyday household items.

The living room is a particularly impressive space, measuring approximately 19'00" x 10'09". Generous proportions provide plenty of room for a comfortable seating arrangement, while a UPVC double glazed window and door allow an abundance of natural light to fill the room. The door opens directly onto one of the apartment's private balconies, enjoying views towards the river, creating a wonderful extension of the living accommodation. A feature fireplace provides an attractive focal point, complemented by an electric storage heater and fitted carpet.

The kitchen is well arranged and fitted with a good selection of cupboards, matching wall cabinets and drawers, providing ample storage and preparation space. Integrated appliances include a single oven with four-ring electric hob and extractor above, together with an integrated fridge and freezer. An inset stainless steel sink is set into the work surface, while part-tiled walls and vinyl flooring provide a practical finish. A UPVC double glazed window takes full advantage of the pleasant outlook towards the river and trees beyond.

The principal bedroom is a generous, light and airy double room, measuring approximately 15'05" x 10'08". Fitted wardrobes with mirrored doors provide excellent hanging and storage space, while a UPVC double glazed door opens directly onto the apartment's second private balcony, once again enjoying an attractive outlook towards the river. This creates a lovely sense of space and provides the bedroom with its own private connection to the outside.

The accommodation is completed by a modern shower room, fitted with a contemporary three-piece suite comprising a generous double shower enclosure with shower head over, WC and vanity wash hand basin with useful storage beneath. Fully tiled walls, tiled flooring, a heated towel rail and electric wall heater complete the room.

A particularly appealing feature of 7 Port Mill Court is its two private balconies. Accessed independently from the living room and bedroom, they provide valuable outside space and are ideally positioned to make the most of the attractive river outlook. With space for a small table and chairs, they offer a delightful setting in which to enjoy a morning coffee, read a book or simply sit back and appreciate the surroundings.

Designed specifically with the over 60s in mind, Port Mill Court offers the benefits of independent retirement living within an established development, while remaining conveniently positioned for access to Barnstaple and its wide range of shops, amenities and services.

Combining a ground-floor position, spacious accommodation, two private balconies and attractive river views, 7 Port Mill Court represents an excellent opportunity for those seeking a comfortable and conveniently positioned retirement home. Offered for sale with no onward chain, an internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the space, outlook and setting on offer.
