Nestled in the charming Old School Mews on Violet Hill Road, Stowmarket, this delightful terraced mews style house presents an ideal investment solely for those aged 60 and over. So whether you are searching for a peaceful, well-connected home to enjoy your upcoming retirement, or a lock-up-and-leave to enjoy more travelling, this collection of purpose built properties with a friendly sense of community could be ideal.

Built in 1988, the property spans a comfortable 646 square feet, providing a perfect balance of space and intimacy.

For those with a vehicle, the property includes parking for one car, adding to the convenience of living in this lovely mews-style house.

Old Schools Mews is designed exclusively for those aged 60 and over, comprising a mixture of apartments within a main building and mews style houses collected around a communal garden. This property offers the peace of mind of an emergency pull cord system and an onsite warden on hand, great for those who don't necessarily need round the clock care, but would appreciate the option of a little extra support.

Upon entering, you will find an internal corridor with useful understairs storage cupboard, leading to a welcoming reception room that serves as the heart of the home, ideal for relaxation or entertaining guests. This room offers French doors overlooking a well-tended garden and providing access to a lovely patio area, ideal for enjoying a spot of sunshine. A large storage cupboard offers fantastic storage space.

The kitchen has been recently refitted and now offers a bright and inviting space for cooking, incorporating an oven with hob, space and plumbing for a washing machine, and space for a fridge/freezer. A window overlooks the patio garden next to the front door, and the communal garden.

A good sized shower room completes the ground floor accommodation, with WC and wash hand basin.

Upstairs are two well-proportioned bedrooms, a cupboard housing the water tank, and a further bathroom. The master bedroom is a comfortable double, with fitted wardrobes. Bedroom 2 is also a double, with a large built in storage cupboard.

One of the standout features of this property is the beautifully tended front and rear gardens, which offer a tranquil outdoor space to enjoy a mug of something hot, or perhaps a glass of something cold and bubbly. Additionally, residents can take advantage of the communal gardens and rooms within the main building which offer the opportunity for socialising, fostering a sense of community among neighbours.

Lease Details
The property has a 125 year lease running from 1988. There is an annual Service Charge currently at £2337.12 and a Ground Rent of £601.74. This charge covers building insurance, water use and rates, gardening, upkeep of all communal areas, residents' lounge, and security/emergency system.
