Milton House is a high-quality development of well-appointed apartments designed specifically for the comfort of retired people and situated within a short bus ride of the town and close to a local park. The retirement apartments here offer many advantages to those who wish to make the most of their increased leisure and other opportunities that retirement brings. Milton House is a small community of apartments that offer comfort, support and security to all residents and an alarm in most rooms links to the telecom system providing instant support if required in an emergency. There is a residents' lounge where neighbours can meet up and attention is paid to details such as high-level sockets, double glazing and all-electric heating. There is even a guest room for a small daily charge for any visitors who cannot otherwise be accommodated.

Milton House gives security and independence and is sought after due to its proximity and level walking distance to Forde Park and the bus service situated immediately outside the complex. Please see agent's notes at the end of these details for further information regarding this development or feel free to telephone us for any further information you require.
