This delightful two bedroom Over 55s ground floor flat is situated within a purpose built complex off Saddington Road and enjoys views over the 'Duck Pond' as it is known locally. The property is offered with no upward chain and has been substantially improved by the previous owner including a rather impressive, refitted kitchen and shower room. The flat is well placed for the village centre and is within walking distance of both a local Co-op supermarket and medical centre.

Access to the flat is via a secure shared main entrance and then private access to individual flats. As you enter through the front door you are welcomed into a generous entrance hall, off is a useful and generous cloakroom/storage cupboard.

The main lounge is a spacious dual aspect room which benefits from a patio door with Juliet style balcony that offers views over the pond and a further window to the side which provides plenty of natural light. There is a glazed panel door that leads through to a kitchen.

The kitchen has been refitted to a very high standard and includes a range of base and wall-mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and a composite sink and drainer. Integrated appliances include a ceramic hob with extractor over and built-in electric oven underneath. There is also an integrated fridge/freezer and washing machine.

The principal bedroom is a generous double room with ample space for a range of freestanding wardrobes and drawers. The second bedroom, although smaller, can still accommodate a double bed and offers the flexibility to be used as a formal dining room, hobby room or additional sitting room if not required as a bedroom.

Finally, there is a refitted and fully tiled shower room that comprises a three-piece suite to include a large walk-in shower, low flush WC and wash hand basin that is set onto a vanity unit.

The home also benefits from an allocated parking space and communal gardens with the pond being a particularly tranquil and pleasant setting.

Internal viewing is highly recommended to truly appreciate the space, presentation and position of this charming retirement flat.
