This is undoubtedly one of the most prime positioned apartments within the Park Lodge development. Being ground floor, this is not only centrally positioned but it also has the enormous appeal of its own external door out from the lounge and into the landscaped communal garden.

In addition to the security and support this well-respected development offers, this particular apartment has been thoughtfully decorated and improved over the years to ensure the overall look and fittings are tasteful and modern in appearance. This is no more obvious than in both the refitted shower room and the kitchen which have been designed with thought and consideration.

It's also worth noting the bedroom has a triple wardrobe, there is an enormous walk-in store cupboard and the electric heaters have been replaced with much more aesthetically pleasing units that are likely to be far more efficient.

Conveniently positioned within the complex just a short walk from the welcoming communal lounge, this lovely apartment will be the perfect choice of home at Park Lodge.
A selection of shops and amenities are adjacent to the development: these include opticians, doctors and dental surgeries and Billericay High Street is just a mile away. A bus stop is conveniently situated outside Park Lodge with a regular service into central Billericay and to the station.

PARK LODGE

Built by Wimpey Retirement Homes, the development comprises 79 studio, one bed and two bedroom apartments arranged over two floors, the upper floors serviced by two lifts. On-site facilities include a Residents' Lounge, Dining Area, Communal Computer Area, Laundry and Games Room.

Doors from the main residents' lounge open out to the patio and communal lawn.

The complex is set within its own landscaped grounds with parking available for visitors courtesy of two car parks at the front and rear of the building.

An experienced management company takes care of all external maintenance offering residents peace of mind without intruding into their privacy.

Aimed specifically at the over 55s, this is a development which allows you to live in a self-contained apartment offering total independence, yet with the added security, should you require it, and in a location which is convenient for everything.

MAIN ENTRANCE

Adjacent to the main entrance is the Manager's Office, with the area around encompassing the two residents' lounges and dining area.

A lift from the communal lounge or stairs, positioned just behind the lift, gives access to the first floor.

KITCHEN 2.57 m x 1.79 m (8'4 x 5'9)

As you will see from the photos this kitchen with its wood style flooring and rear window, has again been refitted in a tasteful style using cream-coloured shaker units with complimentary worktops and matching splashback's giving a neat and tidy appearance.

This kitchen has a built-in sink unit with mixer taps, a halogen hob and spaces for a washing machine and fridge freezer. It's worth noting there is a launderette within the Park Lodge development so having a washing machine within the apartment is purely personal choice.

WARDEN CONTROLLED

Emergency alarm pull-cord is provided in the apartment. Pulling the cord will immediately alert the house manager to your need for help. When the Manager is off-duty, the system is linked to an emergency 24 hour Response Unit. Either in person or through the alarm intercom, you can be sure there will always be someone available in the event of an emergency day or night, every day of the year.
