Wickham Road, Beckenham, BR3

There are few opportunities in the local area, let alone in such a fabulous location, to obtain a retirement flat with direct access to the communal gardens but Park Court is one of them. Positioned to the rear of the block, enjoying privacy from the road at the front, this one bedroom flat has the further advantage for any new owner of modernisation by the previous owner, including wood effect flooring throughout, wet room style shower room and kitchen with added delight of a window enjoying an outlook over the gardens. The communal areas are currently being decoratively updated along with carpets and the block already enjoys a newly refurbished communal living room. Other standard features include laundry room, guest suite and part-time on site development manager.

Conveniently located for the Tesco Express by the Park Langley roundabout and popular shops on Wickham Road providing a chemist, newsagent, delicatessen, coffee shops, bakery and off licence with post office. Bus route 162 runs along Wickham Road for Bromley, Chislehurst and Beckenham High Street. Kelsey Park provides an attractive walk to Beckenham High Street, about three quarters of a mile away and from Beckenham Junction there are trains to Victoria as well as trams to Croydon and Wimbledon.
