Welcome to Strand Court – a highly regarded, purpose-built retirement development perfectly positioned for easy access to Bideford’s vibrant town centre. This beautifully presented second floor apartment offers a wonderful lifestyle opportunity with the benefit of lift access, on-site manager and attractive communal facilities.
Enjoying delightful views across The Strand Bowling Club, this bright and well-appointed home has been designed with ease of living in mind. A welcoming Reception Hall includes a generous walk-in storage cupboard, meter cupboard and emergency pull-cord system for added reassurance.
The elegant Lounge / Dining Room is a lovely, light-filled space with French doors opening to a Juliet Balcony – the perfect spot to enjoy fresh air and a peaceful outlook over the green. The adjoining Kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of units and worktops, along with integrated appliances and space for a fridge / freezer – all whilst still enjoying the charming outlook.
The double Bedroom benefits from a mirrored built-in wardrobe and a peaceful setting, again with views over the Bowling Green. A stylish Shower Room has been tastefully updated and features a fully enclosed double cubicle, modern vanity unit, and extensive tiling throughout.
Strand Court, itself, offers the comfort of a resident manager, communal lounge, guest suite, laundry room and beautifully kept gardens – plus an active community of like-minded residents. With all the town’s shops, services, cafes and the picturesque Quayside just a short level stroll away, this is the ideal setting to enjoy independent retirement living in Bideford.
Bideford is a peaceful olde worlde market town on the River Torridge. The main district is on the west bank and its narrow streets filled with white painted houses sprawl from the working quay, up the slopes to the outer suburbs. A former historic port town, Bideford is a great place to explore, whether it’s a trip to the shops or a restaurant outing there's something for everyone. The Pannier Market is a brilliant example of the town’s originality, with its terrace of artists’ workshops and independent shops. The town also champions sports at a grassroots level with both the local rugby and football teams having healthy followings. There are no end of ways to join in the community spirit of this wonderful white town on the hill.
All the amenities you'll ever need are to be found within easy reach of Bideford. To the north are the coastal towns of Westward Ho!, Appledore and Northam, all of which will figure in your day-to-day routines if you enjoy the sea or the outdoor life. Northam boasts a brilliant indoor swimming pool and gym.
Bideford is within short driving distance of the Atlantic Highway (A39) which is the main feeder route across the region leading to Cornwall in the south-west and to the M5 in the east. A regular bus service provides access to North Devon’s ‘capital’, Barnstaple. Bus users can also reach Westward Ho!, Braunton, Appledore, Croyde and Ilfracombe.
Directions
From Bideford Quay proceed towards Northam passing the Texaco Petrol Station on your right hand side. Take the turning opposite onto Chingswell Street where Strand Court will be situated immediately on your right hand side.
