OUR VIEW: “Before coming to market, this spacious ground-floor over-60s apartment has had a facelift, with new carpets throughout. It is presented in fabulous ready-to-move-into order, and offers cheerful and airy accommodation. Both bedrooms are of a decent size, the kitchen includes built-in appliances, and the bathroom has a shower over the bath. But what impressed me most was how spacious and light the living room feels, having three windows including a lovely bay.” Martin G. Haigh
