1 bedroom retirement property for sale

DESCRIPTION/LOCATION: Enjoy the added security of a first floor maisonette currently with a stair lift within well maintained grounds of about 6 acres including plenty of car parking. A select development of mainly one and two bedroom apartments built at a low density and enjoying almost unrivalled space so close to the town centre. There is every encouragement for independent living, but there is a residents’ communal lounge, which holds regular social events. Other facilities include a utility room with washing machine. There is also a guest suite available for rental.

Acorn Drive forms part of retirement complex (55 years+) including but not connected to the adjoining Glebelands, Academy House and The Cloisters all approached off Acorn Drive.
