Under Offer £260,000 - Flat
A ground floor flat for people who are at least sixty years of age, set in an excellent development on the border of Henleaze and Westbury on Trym (and handily placed for the shops and amenities of both).
Offering an excellent combination of independent living with the peace of mind of having an estate manager on site and a 24-hour emergency call system, this ground floor purpose-built apartment is located in a quiet and popular development on the Westbury side of Henleaze. It has two bedrooms plus an extra store room (which is really handy for those who are downsizing and not sure what to take and what to get rid of) which, in time, can make a super study, computer or hobbies room. The lounge/diner has a bay window which faces west (so comes into its own in the afternoon and evening), a kitchen and bathroom, all of which enjoy natural light.
