Description
An ATTRACTIVE and SPACIOUS retirement apartment being offered with NO ONWARD CHAIN. Conveniently situated in the HEART OF TOPSHAM, just a brief stroll away from shops and amenities. Offering 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and enjoys PICTURESQUE VIEWS of the bowling green, this property includes COMMUNAL PARKING and access to well-maintained COMMUNAL GARDENS.
Armada Court is a very popular retirement development located at the old school, in the heart of Topsham, a short level walk to shops and amenities, next to the swimming pool and bowling green. This particular apartment is one of the largest at Armada Court, being the top half of what was previously the headmaster's house. The property has its own front door, with stairs and a stairlift rising to the first floor. The accommodation is well presented and spacious, with a good-sized sitting room with two modern electric heaters - overlooking the communal gardens and direct views of the bowling green. The adjoining kitchen has recently been upgraded enjoying a range of base, wall and drawer units with work top over, a sink and drainer unit, 4 ring electric hob with oven, high level microwave and an integrated fridge-freezer & dishwasher, also benefitting from a double glazed window overlooking the bowling green. There are two bedrooms (principal en-suite bathroom) plus a separate shower room. Owners need to be aged 55 or over and an on-site manager is available during office hours.
Secure parking is provided with electronic access gate and residents have access to the communal gardens. In addition, there is a large owners' lounge, complete with small library, which may be used at any time and is ideal for meeting for afternoon tea or entertaining guests. An en-suite visitors bedroom is also available for owner’s friends and relatives who may require accommodation in Topsham. The property would be suitable as a main residence or as an investment opportunity as the lease allows for the apartments to be let.
Situation
Perched on the banks of the River Exe Estuary it is hard to envisage a location better suited to retirement living than that of the historic port of Topsham. With a welcoming atmosphere, an active community and Exeter just 3 miles away, its nationwide renown is justly deserved. Armada Court is a small development sitting in the heart of Topsham's charming centre, bordered by the local bowling green. The location has been carefully chosen to ensure that the post office, shops, chemist, doctor and bus and train services are all within a relatively short, level walk away.
Directions
Walking from the Topsham office, turn left. At the old fire station, cross over the road, passing Matthews Hall on your left and then the swimming pool on your right. Armada Court is directly ahead.
