A wonderful bright and spacious retirement apartment, ideally located in Sidmouth, close to the town centre and a number of local shops and amenities.

Presented to a high standard throughout, this particular apartment has a private south-facing balcony, offering a pleasant 'leafy' outlook across the nearby rooftops and Sidmouth's Byes Riverside Park, which also provides a lovely place for nearby walks.  Internally, there is a spacious living room with sliding doors to the balcony, a well-appointed kitchen, a bathroom and a 21' bedroom.  This is only one of two apartments within the building offering this highly desirable layout.  

Homemeadows House is a bespoke retirement complex, with many other facilities which include a large residents' lounge where events such as coffee mornings and fish and chip suppers take place, private gardens and a parking area for residents and their visitors.  There is a live-in warden who looks after the running of the building and is on hand for the residents and all apartments are equipped with emergency pull cords for added assurance.  We understand that all the accommodation and facilities are designed with wheelchair access in mind and all floors within the development can be accessed from the lift.  

To fully appreciate all this property has to offer, internal viewing is highly recommended.
