Property description

Old enough to live here, but still young at heart! That's quite possibly how you will feel and anyway, they say that '55 is the new 35' these days, so in which case, you will be surrounded by other 'young' minded people! It will be like staying in a Warner Leisure Hotel in an adult-only environment, with no screaming kids allowed. With luck, you should be able to walk into town from here and trip the light fantastic and all that Whitchurch has to offer including pubs, cafes, restaurants, churches, shops etc. Okay, let's not get too carried away, but I am sure that you are beginning to get the gist of this. In my mind, St Johns Park is one of the best located apartment blocks in the area, with a huge amount going for it and therefore offering terrific value for money. It is almost like an exclusive mini-hotel with personal security entry system, warden/manager supervision, residents lounge and conservatory plus unlimited laundry/drying facilities, all set amidst beautifully maintained communal gardens. Of course, you pay for all of this in the service charge, but put into context, it is small change for what you get. This particular flat is downstairs, so you don't even have to step into the lift to get there. Also, it is larger than some, in the fact that there are 2 bedrooms, which is ideal if you are entertaining guests. Also of note is the fact that it is located towards the rear of the building and enjoys a private aspect which is not overlooked. The comfortable lounge/dining room has a feature stainless steel electric fire and there is an archway which leads into the kitchen, which has been well planned and comes complete with appliances. Not only that, it is clean, very well presented and is offered with no onward chain. Outside, there is car parking within the communal car park. So there you have it. If you are a young 55 year old or above, you could do a lot worse than take a look at this very comfortable and reasonably spacious downstairs flat, which, believe me, has a heck of a lot going for it.
