About this home
Call us 9AM - 9PM -7 days a week, 365 days a year! There’s something wonderfully reassuring about a home that feels calm the moment you step inside, and this beautifully kept apartment at Humphrey Court delivers exactly that. Designed with comfort, ease and a touch of quiet luxury in mind, it offers a peaceful retreat where everything has been thoughtfully considered — from storage to sunlight to simple, stress-free living. The communal entrance leads up to the apartment via lift or stairs, where the front door opens into a welcoming hallway that immediately sets the tone. There’s a handy cupboard housing the electric meter, along with a generous double-door storage cupboard cleverly designed to accommodate both a washing machine and dryer. The flooring has been subtly raised in one corner to maximise usable storage, a thoughtful detail that shows just how well this home has been planned. Off the hallway sits a sleek and well-finished shower room, complete with a large walk-in shower and a clean, contemporary feel. Moving through, the hallway opens into the lounge, a bright and inviting space with an electric fireplace and a large door opening onto a Juliet balcony. Being positioned at the end of the building, the lounge also benefits from additional side windows, allowing natural light to pour in and giving the room a lovely open aspect. The kitchen flows neatly from the lounge and is a real standout feature. Finished with solid quartz worktops, it offers an induction four-burner hob with automatic extractor, an elevated integrated oven with microwave above (including steam functionality), an integrated fridge freezer, dishwasher and a carousel corner cupboard that makes excellent use of space. It’s a kitchen that feels both premium and easy to live with. The apartment provides two well-proportioned double bedrooms. One is currently used as a craft room but would work equally well as a guest bedroom or study. The principal bedroom is a generous and peaceful space, featuring a walk-in corner wardrobe and a beautifully fitted en-suite bathroom with a shower over the bath. The finish throughout is immaculate, with the bath having never been used since installation. Externally, the property benefits from one allocated parking space and sits within a well-maintained retirement development, with communal gardens and living spaces within, offering a secure, friendly environment with the reassurance of age-restricted living for those aged 60 and over.
