This superb 2 bedroom apartment is part of the gated complex that is King Henry Lodge.
Before we describe the property, let us tell you about the Lodge & the area:
King Henry Lodge is a stylish development of 32 one and two bedroom retirement apartments in the suburban London district of Chingford, bordered by Epping Forest, the River Lea and King George's Reservoir. Chingford is home to a number of listed buildings and landmarks including Queen Elizabeth's Hunting Lodge, dating back to 1543. Epping Forest is London's largest open space and a great place to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy the beautiful landscape and wildlife.

The lodge is in a great location close to the local shops, cafes, Doctors and a pharmacy. Transport is excellent with a bus stop almost outside with regular trips into central London and even a night bus service from Trafalgar Square.

King Henry Lodge's manager is on hand throughout the day to support the residents and keep the development in perfect shape. They arrange many regular events in the Owners' Lounge from coffee mornings to games afternoons.

A Guest Suite is available for your friends and family to stay in. In addition, you are entitled to use of the Guest Suites at all Churchill Retirement Living developments across the country. Prices are available from the Lodge Manager.

King Henry Lodge has been designed with safety and security at the forefront with an emergency Careline system installed, monitored by the onsite Lodge Manager during the day and 24 hours, 365 days a year by the Careline team. A Careline integrated intruder alarm, secure video entry system and sophisticated fire and smoke detection systems throughout both the apartment and communal areas provide unrivalled peace of mind.

King Henry Lodge is managed by the award winning Churchill Estates Management, working closely with Churchill Retirement Living and Churchill Sales & Lettings to maintain the highest standards of maintenance and service for every lodge and owner.

King Henry Lodge requires at least one apartment resident to be over the age of 60 with any second resident over the age of 55.

The property itself is a ground floor apartment. It has a good size lounge / Diner with access to the fully fitted kitchen. There is a large door that leads onto a small but charming ground level balcony. This is perfect for sitting out in the fresh air with a nice cup or glass of something.
The Kitchen has just about everything that you will need and is finished to a very high standard.
Both bedrooms are good size doubles and the bathroom has a walk in shower, WC, heated towel rail and wash basin with integrated furniture.
There is a communal laundry room with washing machines, tumble dryers and irons etc.
For those who are community and neighbourly minded, there is a communal lounge where there are several daytime and evening activities such as quizzes and craft sessions etc. Failing that, you can just sit & chill if you prefer a change of scenery.
There is also a wellbeing lounge with visiting hairdressers, beauticians etc.
There is also a communal garden (accessed from the lounge) where you can while away the hours in the warmer months.
Whilst there is allocated parking, many residents do not have cars and therefore there is always plenty of parking.
This truly is the 'Rolls Royce' of senior living. You have the option of independence along with a fabulous community spirit. There is a guest room available for friends and family when they come to visit. The best of both worlds in a luxurious secure apartment, where everyone is aged 55 or over. Splendid!
*Conditional sale means the lucky new owner will have to pay a reservation fee of 1% + VAT to secure the property and this needs to be factored in when making an offer. Please call our office for full details.
