Property description & features

A superbly proportioned and presented larger than average first floor retirement apartment located in the heart of Timperley village. The accommodation briefly comprises communal reception area with residents lounge, private entrance hall with storage, large open plan sitting/dining room with adjacent fitted kitchen, large double bedroom with fitted wardrobe and modern shower room/WC.

This larger than average first floor apartment forms part of a highly favoured development by McCarthy & Stone and is ideally located within the heart of Timperley village centre. The market town of Altrincham with its more comprehensive range of shops and Metrolink railway service into Manchester is about 2 miles distant with a further Metrolink station along Park Road in Timperley.

A communal reception area and residents lounge form the focal point of the community within Howard Court. The self contained and private accommodation is well appointed and with electric central heating and double glazing. Within the apartment is also a series of pull cords to contact the House Manager during working hours if required. There is also a guest suite for the benefit of occupiers and this can be booked in advance at a reasonable cost. There is also a communal laundry room. The apartment is larger than average as previously mentioned and also has the added benefit of French doors leading onto a Juliette balcony. The private entrance hall provides a large storage cupboard/airing cupboard and there is an impressive open plan sitting/dining room with fitted kitchen off. The accommodation is completed by the large double bedroom with fitted wardrobes and the recently installed shower room/WC.

A superb apartment and viewing is highly recommended.
