Description

CHAIN FREE: Superbly located within easy reach of the popular Crouch Street shopping parade and Colchester's busy city centre is this spacious, recently decorated, one-bedroom, retirement residence. This second floor flat has lovely views including the communal gardens. It provides over 60s accommodation in a development originally built by McCarthy Stone. There are lifts to all floors, a communal lounge, guest suite, laundry facilities, and a house manager.

The lounge and bedroom have a Fisher radiator in each room - these are individually controlled by their own thermostats. They are very efficient as they have an inbuilt convecting chamber with a fire clay core with heating elements. Also, there is a electric Fischer boiler which does not require annual servicing and because of it's minimal size - leaves ample room to store other objects.The whole system has a 10year Manufacturers warranty in place.

Located just outside the centre of Colchester is the popular and modern development of Balkerne Heights granting easy access to restaurants, bars, the vast amounts of shops and the city streets are often lined with stalls on market days. For your entertainment, there is the cinema, Mercury Theatre, Arts Centre, and the historic Castle and its parklands, which often hosts many fetes and concerts. In just under one kilometre from the property is North Station with its direct railway links to Ipswich, Norwich and London Liverpool Street.
