Set within this award-winning development and extremely convenient to the town’s amenities lies this charming retirement cottage.
The Orchard is an attractive low-density development of natural stone constructed retirement cottages completed in the late 1990’s. The scheme is located to the east of the Market Place and within the town’s Conservation area.
Set within managed communal gardens, offering a safe and pleasing environment and within level walking distance of facilities, The Orchard offers a wonderful home for the over 55’s. With the benefit of a swimming pool pavilion, there is a part-time house manager to assist.
Number 22 comprises an end of terrace cottage that has been traditionally constructed of natural coursed stone elevations set beneath a pitched blue slate roof. The property enjoys the comfort of sealed double glazed casement windows and provides a mixture of night storage and convector heating.
The layout briefly offers part glazed front door opening into the entrance hall, stairs rise to first floor, access to both reception rooms, cloakroom and kitchen. The sitting room, with its southerly aspect, has window and patio door that opens into the garden room. There is a separate and generous sized dining room. The kitchen is well appointed with a good selection of built-in base and wall mounted cupboards featuring integral appliances, ample space for breakfast dining. Door to rear.
To the first floor, the spacious landing serves access to three bedrooms, each of double proportion and two with built-in wardrobes; the principal with en suite facility. There is a second shower room.
Outside, the communal gardens offer a variety of seating areas, within tended gardens. South facing rear patio garden. Included in the sale lies a single garage.
