Description

Bridgfords are delighted to present this beautifully maintained first-floor retirement apartment for the over 55s, enjoying delightful views across the communal gardens and offered for sale with no onward chain. Situated within popular retirement development, Undercliffe House, in the sought-after area of Appleton, this lovely apartment provides spacious and comfortable accommodation, ideal for those looking to downsize while retaining their independence.

Upon entering the apartment, a welcoming hallway provides access to a useful storage cupboard, perfect for everyday household essentials. The hallway leads through to a bright and spacious living room, offering ample room for both lounge and dining furniture. Large windows allow natural light to flood the space while framing attractive views over the beautifully maintained communal gardens, creating a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. The current owners advise that the windows were replaced approximately three years ago.

The separate fitted kitchen is conveniently positioned just off the living room and is well equipped with a range of units, generous worktop space and an induction hob, providing a practical space for everyday cooking.

The double bedroom is a fantastic size and benefits from fitted wardrobes, offering excellent storage without compromising on floor space. Completing the accommodation is a modern three-piece bathroom, fitted with a bath, wash basin and WC.

Residents of the development enjoy access to a range of communal facilities designed to promote both convenience and community living, including lift access, residents' lounges, a spacious laundry room and beautifully landscaped communal gardens. Visitor parking is available on-site, with allocated parking available by separate arrangement and at an additional cost.

Located in the heart of Appleton, close to local amenities and transport links, this excellent retirement apartment offers the perfect balance of independent living, comfort and community. Early viewing is highly recommended.

Please note that an AML fee is chargeable once an offer is accepted to cover the cost of carrying out the required identity and anti-money laundering checks.
