1 bedroom retirement property for sale

Situated with views towards the High Street you gain a real sense of the community whilst being quietly tucked away within the quadrangle – the best of both worlds!

The lounge/dining room has a large picture double glazed window and ample space for a dining table. There is a useful store cupboard which houses the hot water tank and provides useful airing space; whilst an archway leads through to the kitchen which is fitted with a range of fitted wall and base units with space for cooker and fridge/freezer. The kitchen also has the advantage of a window overlooking the front making it light and airy.

The double bedroom has a fitted wardrobe and again overlooks the quadrangle. The modern shower room has a walk in shower cubicle, low level wc and vanity unit with inset wash basin.

Home Abbey has an elegant resident’s lounge; a laundry with modern appliances and day time warden present to help with any concerns.

Outside there are beautifully kept communal gardens with benches offering the opportunity to soak up the views across the river and perhaps feed the ducks. There is also a rotary line drying area and bin store and the whole rear grounds are fully secure.

Specifically designed by quality Retirement Home Develops, McCarthy & Stone, and managed by First Port, Home Abbey has a range of apartment styles over three floors all serviced by a lift and 24 hour careline response system.
