A RIVER VIEW TWO BEDROOM RETIREMENT APARTMENT close to the amenities of Okehampton town centre
Introduction: - A slice of the countryside with the convenience of excellent facilities 'on the doorstep' and town centre less than half a mile away. This is a perfect combination of tranquil riverside setting and a vibrant market town location. This river view, two bedroom, garden apartment enjoys a small terrace. Located on the ground floor, the apartment is obviously within easy access to the excellent communal facilities of the development. This is a rather spacious apartment with living room having the river outlook and French door to terrace, a modern kitchen with a host of integrated appliances, two excellent bedrooms and a well-equipped bathroom. The apartment has a rural feel yet the development is under a quarter of a mile distance to a Waitrose supermarket.
Constructed in early 2010 by award-winning retirement home specialists McCarthy and Stone, River's Edge Court is a Retirement Living development providing a quality-of-lifestyle opportunity for the over 60's and designed for independent living with the peace-of-mind provided by the day-to-day support of our excellent House Manager who oversees the smooth running of the development. As the development name implies, it is in a tranquil riverside setting adjacent to the River Okement with mature trees and shrubs around, yet unbelievably only around half a mile from Okehampton High Street and even closer to a Waitrose supermarket and other more immediate facilities. The property enjoys excellent communal facilities including a homeowners' lounge, laundry, scooter store and landscaped gardens. There is also the excellent guest suite widely used by visiting family and friends for which a small charge of £25 per night applies.
Its so easy to make new friends and to lead a busy and fulfilled life at River's Edge Court; there are always plenty of regular activities to choose, typically including: regular coffee mornings, knitting group, yoga, mah-jong, French group, and organised coach trips among others. Whilst there is something for everyone there is certainly no obligation to participate and home owners can dip in and out of activities or remain as private as they wish.
