Eaves Court is a recently built development of 69 "independent living with care" apartments for the over 65s and this is a particularly appealing apartment thanks to its south-westerly aspect and first floor location next to the lift.
The wide reception hall has two fitted storage/coat cupboards on one side and it leads to the 18 ft x 13 ft sitting/dining room at the far end. French doors open to the balcony; a charming spot for taking tea and admiring the view or cultivating a few planters for those who have green fingers.
Adjoining the living room, the contemporary fitted kitchen has integrated appliances including a dishwasher, a washing machine and an eye-level oven and microwave.
There are two bedrooms, one of which could work well as a study whilst the principal bedroom is quite luxurious with a walk-in wardrobe and a recently refitted en suite shower room (walk in shower). A bathroom accessed from the hall completes the accommodation.
Outside
The communal landscaped gardens are beautifully maintained and provide the perfect opportunity for summer socialising. There are unallocated parking spaces and first class facilities for residents including a spacious lounge which opens to the terrace, the Vista Cafe and a cinema for film nights. The Wellness Suite features a treatment room and a hairdressing salon. Additionally, a guest suite is available for visitors.
Age criteria: Sole occupiers, or both partners in a couple, must be 65 or over, one having a care need (minimum of two hours per week).
Deferred sinking fund - 3% on sale.
