Stonegate
Stonegate is a superb development of just 27 individually designed properties set around two beautifully landscaped courtyards designed by a Chelsea Flower Show Gold Award winner. Security and safety of residents has been of particular note in the design, with personal 24 hour emergency alarms and smoke alarms, as well as a part time on-site manager, working 5 days a week 9am – 1pm. A condition of occupancy is that the principal resident has to be at least 55 years of age. The management company and freeholder is Grange Management Limited. A noteworthy feature to the development is the Club House , with regular art class, coffee mornings and exercise class. This can also be booked for private function by leaseholders. A guest suite is available to both residents and their families, together with the croquet lawn.
No. 18 benefits from a garage situated in the right-hand corner of the development (when having your back to the front door). The bedroom accommodation has been reconfigured to create a spacious principal bedroom with an adjoining dressing room. Should a purchaser require additional accommodation, the original layout could be reinstated with minimal expense, restoring the property to a three-bedroom home.
