Enjoy the ease of ground-floor living and the comfort of your own front door at 5 Gilman Court, a spacious two-bedroom apartment in the heart of Bishopstoke Park's over-65s community. The welcoming hallway sets the tone with room for furniture and everyday essentials.
The living room is a generous, square-shaped space with a door to the private patio-perfect for a sunny sit-out or a few favourite pots. Glazed double doors open into the well-fitted kitchen, complete with integrated appliances (including fridge/freezer, oven, microwave, dishwasher and washer/dryer) so everything is neat and within reach.
Both bedrooms are good-sized doubles. One enjoys a large en-suite-style walk-in shower room with a window for natural light, while a separate bathroom offers a relaxing alternative for an evening soak. The arrangement works brilliantly for guests, giving privacy and flexibility.
Positioned a short stroll from the main building, you're close to the village's standout amenities-restaurant and bar, wellness centre with pool, sauna, steam room and gym, hair salon, village shop, library and beautifully kept grounds. Orchard Gardens, the on-site care home, is also nearby for visiting loved ones, and flexible care/housekeeping packages are available if your needs change over time.
A comfortable, well-located home with private outside space and a practical layout-ideal for enjoying the Bishopstoke Park lifestyle.

Property information from this agent
About this agent
We first opened our doors back in 2004. We're now based in Park Gate, with services extending across the beautiful stretch of land we've endearingly named 'the Strawberry Coast' in honour of its rich strawberry-growing history. As a proud independent agency, we're not governed by head office targets, meaning we can advise clients on what's in their best interests and not because we need to hit a corporate sales figure. Here are some reasons people trust us to represent them. Uniqueness: We're not a standard agency found on every high street; we're different and proud of it. Flexibility: We adapt to your needs, offering a personalized service tailored to you. Empathy: We're human, just like you. If it matters to you, it matters to us. Honesty & Transparency: With us, there are no hidden surprises; we believe in an open, honest dialogue. Appreciation: We value and are grateful for your custom, acknowledging that you have a choice of agencies. Market Awareness: We stay informed of broader market trends and developments. Legislative Adaptability: We keep up-to-date with legislative changes to provide you with the best advice. Professionally Vetted: We're supported by the estate agency industry's leading professional body, PropertyMark. The PropertyMark Protected logo that we proudly display signifies that we're independently regulated, adhere to qualification standards, and follow a strict Code of Conduct. This means we're accountable to a disciplinary panel for any lapses in these standards, reaffirming our commitment to excellence in service. We've built our reputation on the levels of honesty, care and professionalism we feel everyone deserves.
