Introducing this bright and spacious two double bedroom retirement apartment in the heart of Solihull.

Situated on the first floor has an attractive outlook to the sunny south, overlooking the car park, main entrance and gardens. It has a balcony for plants and sitting out and a major advantage is that the front door opens indoors, close to the lift down to the office where there is a Duty Manager 24/7.

Dovehouse Court offers secure, independent living, but with 24 hour support when needed, along with a restaurant, lounge, lovely gardens and car parks.

Very conveniently situated directly opposite Dovehouse Parade shops, which include Post Office, chemist and a good selection of food shops, cafés, and bakery. It is on two bus routes.

It is quiet and well insulated for warmth and sound, a cosy flat redecorated and upgraded in 2013 with an ensuite to the main bedroom and refurbished bathroom, and cupboards to kitchen.

This first floor flat can be reached by stairs or nearby lift. The front door is off the balcony and leads into the wide entrance hall. There are two large bedrooms, master with walk in wardrobe and additional WC, a living room, fitted kitchen with built in appliances and bathroom, all with emergency pull cords. It has gas central heating, is double-glazed and has been newly decorated.

Dovehouse Court is independently managed so residents can have their say. Lunches are served daily (at cost) and can be delivered to rooms. The Service charge includes 90 minutes weekly housekeeping assistance and there is always a Manager on the property if help is needed. There is a guest suite for visitors and a programme of social activities. Communal facilities include a large lounge, dining room, hobbies room, laundry room and the very pleasant gardens. It is a secure and happy place to live.

Floor plans are for identification purposes only and not to scale. All room measurements and mileages quoted in these sales particulars are approximate. In line with The Money Laundering Regulations 2007 we are duty bound to carry out due diligence on all our clients to confirm their identity.
