4 bedroom retirement property for sale

Four bedroom detached home with own private patio & balcony, offering open plan living with a flexible study that could double as a bedroom on the ground floor.

Description

This beautifully designed, four-bedroom house has a wonderful sense of light, space and 'flow.' With glazed, double doors separating the drawing room, kitchen/dining room and sun room, the generously proportioned interiors are flooded with natural light.

Adjacent to the kitchen/dining room, leading out onto the private terrace, is the utility room; an ideal place to leave muddy boots or to dry the dog after a country walk - and to keep the laundry tucked away out of sight. The sun room is the perfect place to relax, even on cold days and provides access onto the patio and private garden beyond. A fourth bedroom - with an adjacent shower room - completes the ground floor accommodation but this could easily be used as a study or workspace.

On the upper floor, the impressive principal bedroom features an en-suite with both bath and shower - and it's easy to imagine sitting on the balcony, overlooking the garden, enjoying breakfast on a warm, summer's day. Both the principal bedroom and the second bedroom have fitted wardrobes, and there's a separate, luxurious, shower room adjacent to the third bedroom ensuring there are no queues for the bathroom when guests come to stay.

Set within beautifully landscaped, fully maintained grounds, within a designated Conservation Area, Abbey Mill Place is a collection of elegant properties including newly built houses, along with new and converted homes designed for the over 55s.

The 19 two, three and four-bedroom houses designed by Beechcroft’s Special Projects’ team complement this unique location, adjacent to Bishop’s Waltham Palace, overlooking South Pond and just a short walk from the High Street.

Each provides generously proportioned living space, a sun room, balcony, private garden and allocated parking. Energy-efficient and easily maintained, these new homes have been finished to Beechcroft Healthihouse™ standards, with features designed to promote a healthy living environment.

Owners at Abbey Mill Place also benefit from an estate management service, a communal lounge and luxurious guest suite. A menu of additional services, from hot daily meals to hairdressing, will be available at the neighbouring care home
