We are delighted to offer for sale this very well presented, two bedroom, retirement apartment. This first floor apartment is situated within the highly regarded Hardy's Court which boasts beautiful communal gardens and well maintained communal areas including a vibrant residents lounge. This apartment will be especially sought after as it has a private balcony overlooking the main communal garden area.

The entrance door of the apartment gives access to the reception hallway with wall mounted security intercom system, a large storage cupboard and doors to the lounge / diner, bedrooms and bathroom. The lounge / diner is situated to the front of the property with a large double glazed window and door providing excellent natural light and leading to a balcony with pleasant views of the beautiful gardens. There is ample room for a dining table as well as a feature fireplace with electric inset fire and double opening doors to kitchen. The kitchen is tastefully fitted with a modern range of matching eye level and base units, with integrated electric oven, halogen hob and extractor fan. Unusually for this retirement complex, the apartment benefits from its own washing machine.

Bedroom one is spacious and benefits from a built-in mirror fronted wardrobe. Bedroom two is also a generous size with a double glazed window to the front wall. The bathroom comprises a low-level WC, vanity wash hand basin, panelled bath with shower over and complementary tiled walls. The apartment offers double glazing and electric storage heating throughout.

In addition, the residents of the apartment have the use of the communal lounge, well tended communal gardens and laundry room. Visitors have access to the guest suite. Hardy’s Court was built by the renowned McCarthy & Stone and consists of 38 apartments arranged over two floors, each served by a lift. There are nine lots of two bedroom apartments and twenty nine one bedroom apartments within Hardys Court.

The house manager can be contacted from various points within each property. In the case of an emergency, there is a 24hr care-line response for when the house manager is off duty.
