2 bedroom flat for sale

Roxby Gardens is a custom built sheltered housing development located within a comfortable walk to the village shops and a short distance from a bus stop. It operates under a Government run leasehold scheme for the elderly; whereby residents are able to purchase a 70% share of the property's value with the remaining 30% being managed by the Joseph Rowntree Housing Trust. This offers the advantage of having control of your home at an affordable price.

No.8 Roxby Gardens has been refurbished over recent years to now offer a smart fitted kitchen, a shower room, two double bedrooms and a sitting room that over looks the close. This property has the benefit of a personal alarm connection so that those who still prefer to live independently have the added reassurance that help, if required, is close at hand with a residential manager. No.8 has also recently had a permanent slope build up to the front porch and an outside electric point for charging mobility transport.

Outside the property shares residents parking and communal gardens. There is a bin store with shelving immediately outside the property.
