*Recently refreshed throughout with new carpets, a full repaint and a deep clean, this apartment is truly "turnkey", ready for you to move straight in and make it your own. Just unpack, relax and enjoy!"* A ONE BEDROOM RETIREMENT APARTMENT SITUATED ON THE SECOND FLOOR This one-bedroomed apartment enjoys one of the most peaceful and appealing spots in The Fountains – a popular, well-kept development just outside the historic market town of Ormskirk. Located at the front of the building on the second floor, it overlooks the rugby field, the development’s fountain, and its main entrance – With windows opening onto the surrounding scenery.
The property is served by a convenient lift or a rising stairwell – The apartment is located towards the end of the second-floor corridor.
Entering through your own front door, you’ll find a hallway with two partially shelved cupboards offering storage space for coats and household equipment.
Opposite, the bathroom contains a walk-in electric shower, washbasin, mirror, corner cabinet, and freestanding shelving.
The double bedroom has two fitted double wardrobes and overhead cupboards surrounding the bed space, as well as bedside cabinets with glass shelving above. There are further built-in wardrobes opposite which include a dressing table, mirror and drawers.
The living room has pastel green décor with a fitted neutral carpet and an electric fire in a surround with a marble effect hearth. Natural light filters into both the lounge and bedroom through openable windows, each fitted with slatted blinds, offering comfort, privacy, and a connection to the outdoors.
At one end of the lounge, there’s space for a dining table. Just beyond, a set of folding doors leads into the compact U-shaped kitchen. Here you'll find an oven and hob, glass-fronted wall cupboards, base units and drawers, and space for a freestanding fridge-freezer.
Throughout the apartment, heating is provided by electric storage heaters, regulated via a smart meter.
Life at The Fountains is about more than just the four walls of your flat. The communal gardens are beautifully landscaped and well-maintained. There are plenty of places to sit and chat, or relax with a good book. There's even a lake – with ducklings to look out for in the spring!
Just downstairs, the friendly community lounge is a place to meet friends, play cards, have a chat, or simply enjoy a quiet coffee.
Security and peace of mind are a top priority here: there’s a secure fob entry system, a helpful on-site manager, and a 24-hour emergency Appello call system in place.
The Fountains is just a two-minute drive – or a ten-minute walk – from Ormskirk. This charming Lancashire market town has a history going back to the 13th century.
Ormskirk offers everything you need: supermarkets, banks, cafés, a twice-weekly traditional market, GP surgeries, a public library, local shops and a parish church. There’s also a train station with links to Liverpool and Preston, and regular bus services nearby.
The apartment would benefit from a little modernisation, giving the new owners a perfect opportunity to add their own personal touch.
Viewings are available now – please call to find out more information.
