PRIVATE HALLWAY CUPBOARD

OUTSIDE
Chippenham Court is surrounded by its own communal grounds. On the North West side there is a block paved courtyard, the initial section forming a car park for the development but that the inner area, closest to this particular flat, is little used and is quite attractively sheltered by tall brick walling. The recent redevelopment to the rear of Monnow Street, we see as being an improvement and will we believe look very smart when completed. To the Chippenham side of the development there is a communal garden area complete with shrubs and trees as well as a sitting out location.There is ample parking and there is a cupboard store area suitable for refuse or the charging of a scooter.
