To me, this retirement apartment is second to none, with a generous sunroom offering stunning views of the lake and Hothfield Common. -- Greg Wood, Director

#TheGardenOfEngland

This charming ground-floor garden apartment occupies arguably the most desirable position within the sought-after Lakeside development, nestled on the outskirts of Hothfield. Offering spacious and well-proportioned accommodation, the apartment enjoys a truly enviable outlook over the picturesque nearby lake and Hothfield Common.

The property boasts two private gardens, one to each side of the apartment, and features a superb garden room that overlooks the tranquil lake and beautiful communal grounds. Bathed in natural light, the apartment presents an ideal opportunity for those looking to downsize without compromising on space, while still embracing the serene outdoors during their retirement.
Internally, the accommodation is thoughtfully configured to meet personal needs, and includes a generously sized double bedroom alongside a second bedroom currently purposed as a snug/reception. An open-plan kitchen and living area creates a comfortable and flexible living space.
Residents of the Lakeside development benefit from a range of first-class facilities, ensuring convenience and peace of mind in a stunning, rural setting.
