Homeminster House, Station Road, Warminster £89,950

THE PROPERTY

is one of the larger designs of retirement apartment conveniently located on the Ground Floor of the Eastern flank of Homeminster House at Garden level facing Station Road. Thoughtfully planned with the over 55’s in mind this purpose-built development has well-lit communal hallways, all floors are serviced by a lift and stairways whilst all properties benefit from Double Glazing and Economy 7 Night Store Heating. The building has state-of-the-art safety & security systems linked to experienced House Managers who are responsible for overseeing the smooth day-to-day running of the building whilst an out-of-hours careline service provides peace of mind when the House Managers are off duty. A guest apartment is also available by arrangement for visiting friends and relatives. Immediately available and with no associated sale chain, this is a rare opportunity to acquire one of a handful of the larger than usual apartments with the bonus of a spacious 23’ bay-windowed Sitting Room whilst the double Bedroom has a generous Dressing Area, and this is also one of the few with a window in the Kitchen, hence the Agents strongly advise an early accompanied internal inspection in order to avoid disappointment.
