A beautifully presented retirement apartment offering independent living, a welcoming community and peace of mind, ideally situated within a sought-after development close to the amenities of Downend, Staple Hill and Fishponds.
Offered to the market with no onward chain, this impressive one-bedroom, purpose built, second floor retirement apartment presents an excellent opportunity to enjoy a more relaxed and fulfilling lifestyle, combining the comfort of a private home with the reassurance and social benefits of a well-established retirement community. The communal areas of the property remain in excellent condition throughout, with thoughtfully arranged accommodation offering a wonderful balance of space, comfort and practicality.
A particular highlight of this development is the sense of community it offers, providing residents with the freedom to enjoy their independence whilst having opportunities to socialise and connect with like-minded neighbours. The attractive communal lounge provides an inviting environment in which to enjoy a coffee, share a conversation or participate in social gatherings, whilst the communal kitchen is available for use when required. The presence of a dedicated site manager further enhances the appeal, offering reassurance and added peace of mind within a supportive retirement setting.
The private accommodation is accessed via an entrance hallway featuring a video entry phone, leading through to a generously proportioned lounge/dining room, ideal for both relaxing and entertaining. The fitted kitchen is conveniently positioned, whilst the spacious double bedroom benefits from a walk-in wardrobe, providing excellent storage. A wet room completes the accommodation, with further benefits including double-glazed windows, underfloor heating and lift access to the first floor.
The development is complemented by delightful communal gardens, offering a peaceful setting in which to sit and enjoy the outdoors. A dedicated laundry room provides further convenience, whilst allocated parking is available at an additional cost of £250 per annum.
