OUR VIEW: "If you're looking for a convenient, quiet yet not isolated place to spend your retirement, if having the peace of mind of knowing there's a resident estate manager and a 24-hour emergency call system in place, and particularly if you just can't be bothered with stairs anymore, this could very well be the place for you! This ground floor retirement flat is set in a quiet corner of a 1980s-built purpose-built development for the 60s-and-over. It has two bedrooms of decent size, a lounge/diner, a fitted kitchen and a bathroom, and all rooms have windows! There is also plenty of storage with two large cupboards in the hallway." Martin G.
