Description

7/6 Perdrixknowe is a well-proportioned, lower ground floor, two bedroom flat within a purpose-built retirement development, offering comfortable, level accommodation with a practical and welcoming layout throughout.

The flat is entered via a generous central hall with excellent built-in storage. To the front is a particularly spacious living and dining room, comfortably accommodating both seating and table space and benefitting from a wide bay window that draws in good natural light. The kitchen is positioned off the living room and is neatly arranged with a range of wall and base units, ample worktop space, and room for freestanding appliances.

There are two bedrooms, both well sized and flexible in use. The larger principal bedroom is fitted with mirrored wardrobes, while the second bedroom would suit use as a guest room or hobby room. A modern, fully lined wet-room style shower room completes the accommodation, finished with a walk-in shower, wash basin, and WC.

The property further benefits from lift access, double glazing, and electric heating. The development enjoys well maintained communal gardens overlooking Union Canal, residents’ parking, a shared lounge, and an adjoining conservatory, all overseen by a factor. Overall, the property offers comfortable, manageable living within an established and well-regarded retirement setting.
