A rare opportunity to acquire this fully self-contained terraced two bedroom bungalow for the over 55's, situated in the delightful grounds of Foxgrove Residential Home.
Situated in the picturesque grounds but independent of Foxgrove Residential Home, is Foxgrove Court, a select development of retirement cottages in Old Felixstowe.
Yew Cottage occupies the central position of a group of three and has the added benefit of a modern shower room and sliding patio doors opening from the spacious lounge onto individual south facing patio.
Though it is completely self-contained to provide independence, there is the added peace of mind and security that comes from the knowledge that an Administrator is on the main premises and can be contacted 24 hours a day via an intercom system.
The accommodation in brief comprises; entrance porch, entrance hall, two bedrooms, modern shower room, lounge and kitchen. Outside the grounds are maintained by the Residential Home, which is included in the annual Service Charge. We understand that on site parking is available.
The property is approximately half a mile from the town centre and within a few minutes walk of a small parade of shops nearby in High Road East.
