2 bedroom retirement property

An Exceptional Ground Floor Apartment in a Historic Setting

A rare chance to purchase a unique two-bedroom ground floor apartment, beautifully situated within a striking Grade II listed former rectory.

Part of an exclusive development of 10 apartments alongside 8 additional residences set within extensive landscaped grounds, this charming home was thoughtfully converted in the 1990s by a well-respected local developer. It enjoys a prime location in the heart of the sought-after Vale of Belvoir village. Primarily designed for residents aged over 55 (with limited exceptions), the apartment boasts an enviable position overlooking immaculately maintained communal gardens. These grounds are richly planted with mature trees and shrubs, offering picturesque views down to the River Devon and the village church.

The apartment itself benefits from UPVC double glazing and gas central heating, and is available with no upward chain, making it an ideal choice for those looking to downsize in this desirable village. Viewing is highly recommended to truly appreciate both the quality of accommodation and the outstanding location.
