St. Andrews Road, Bridport

A beautifully presented ground floor apartment with its own entrance, patio and communal gardens all within short walking distance of the town.

The Property - 4 Peelers Court is an attractive, beautifully presented apartment on the ground floor of a purpose-built apartment building. The beauty of this apartment is not only its access which allows it to be entered through its own doorway but also its proximity to Bridport town centre and the security. The security aspect is particularly important with a warden in situ during office hours and an emergency call system in place in all the major rooms of the apartment. In addition, the owner can be as sociable as they wish as there is a healthy social life nurtured by the residents around a communal lounge and there is a communal laundry room. This is living for the elderly at its best.

The apartment is simply laid out with the principal living room arranged around an attractive fire surround (not in use), with to one side a door out onto the patio area and a second doorway through to the kitchen. The kitchen is well equipped with a comprehensive range of floor and wall mounted units and cupboards with integral appliances that include a microwave oven, a double electric oven, a ceramic hob, a fridge and a freezer. There are two good double bedrooms, one of which has a range of built-in wardrobes. Both are served by a shower room equipped with a contemporary double sized shower.

Outside - Outside there is a patio for the exclusive use of number four with an area of garden that although is community maintained, could be in practice tweaked to the owners own preference. To the rear of the property there is a large communal terrace ideal for sitting out in the evening, above which there is a further area laid to grass that is more wild and has views over the town and surrounding countryside.

There are plenty of parking spaces available on a first come first served basis.
