THE PROPERTY

Built in 1996 this retirement apartment block is run by FirstPort who are well known and respected and with a long history of similar developments. Much of the appeal of these retirement apartments is the security and reassurance they offer. The complex benefits from a 24-hour care line, security entry system, lift and a lovely house manager is called Marie. Plus a comfortable residents' lounge and a guest suite is available. Residents have peace of mind and where you have likeminded and people of a similar age (and probably interests) who have a mini-community where they can keep to themselves or be as sociable as they like. There is a large communal lounge where al sorts of activities take place and one could join in….or not. A larger than most lift-served apartment, set within McCarthy and Stones' much sought-after seafront retirement development. This spacious two-bedroom apartment has a good-sized lounge/dining room and good sized kitchen. Offered with vacant possession.
