Description

Positioned in a sought-after location close to Preston's seafront, this beautifully presented retirement apartment occupies a prime top-floor setting within an established and well-maintained development for residents over 60. Being situated at the end and towards the rear of the building, the apartment offers a peaceful outlook and has been tastefully refurbished throughout to a high standard.

Tembani Court was built by McCarthy & Stone (Developments) Ltd and comprises 92 apartments arranged across four floors, all accessible by lift. A Development Manager is on hand and can be reached at various points within each property in an emergency. For added peace of mind, when the Development Manager is off duty, a 24-hour emergency Appello call system is in place. The development provides an excellent lifestyle choice for those seeking independence and community. A resident's lounge with a spacious balcony overlooks Preston Green and the sea, creating the idyllic place to relax or socialise. A full calendar of communal activities, a dedicated laundry room, and the convenience of lift access to all levels further enhance the appeal.

Visiting family and friends are well catered for with a comfortable guest suite, available at £30 per night, complete with en-suite facilities. In addition, owners benefit from the opportunity to stay at sister developments across the country on the same terms.

Parking is available subject to availability, with a waiting list in place should spaces be fully allocated at the time of purchase.

With the seafront, beaches and scenic coastal paths just a short walk away, and Preston's shops, town centre, railway and bus station all close at hand, this property combines an exceptional position with thoughtfully designed retirement living.

The Approach

From the third floor landing, the apartment’s private entrance opens into a welcoming hallway. A deep built-in storage cupboard houses the hot water tank while offering useful additional space. Two further airing cupboards are located along the hallway, one of which neatly accommodates the consumer unit, ensuring practicality and organisation. The hallway itself benefits from a wall-mounted electric radiator and is fitted with an emergency pull cord for added reassurance.

Living Room, Diner & Kitchen

The living space is both spacious and well-presented, enjoying an abundance of natural light through a double-glazed window, with ample room beneath for a dining table. The living room itself offers comfortable proportions and is fitted with TV and telephone points, together with an electric radiator. The adjoining kitchen has been designed with style and practicality in mind. A contemporary range of dove grey wall and base units are complemented by square-edge work surfaces and a durable aqua board splashback. A one-and-a-half bowl stainless steel sink with drainer is positioned beneath a further double-glazed window. Quality fittings include an integrated eye-level oven with a recess above for a microwave, and a countertop induction hob with extractor over. Provision is also made for a freestanding fridge/freezer.

Bedroom one

A particularly spacious double bedroom, enjoying excellent natural light courtesy of a side aspect double-glazed window and a Velux window to the rear. The room benefits from a built-in wardrobe with mirrored bi-fold doors, and additional eaves storage. Offering generous proportions, the space comfortably accommodates a range of bedroom furnishings. An electric wall-mounted radiator and an emergency pull cord are also installed.

Bedroom two

The second bedroom is a well-proportioned double room which, despite being slightly smaller in scale, comfortably accommodates a double bed together with wardrobes, dressers and even a small sofa. A side-aspect double-glazed window ensures the room is filled with natural light. Additional features include a wall-mounted electric radiator and an emergency pull cord.

Shower room

A modern and well-appointed shower room, finished with low-maintenance aqua board panelling to the walls. The suite comprises a generous double shower enclosure with electric shower and wall-mounted handrail, a vanity unit with countertop wash basin and storage drawers beneath, and a WC. Further features include a heated towel rail, extractor fan and a wall-mounted heater.
