Description
This superb and rarely available first-floor retirement apartment is ideally positioned in the heart of vibrant Churchtown Village, offering an exceptional combination of space, comfort and convenience for those aged over 55. One of only two of the largest apartments within the development, the property provides particularly generous accommodation throughout and enjoys beautiful views across the well-maintained communal gardens.
The apartment is accessed through a secure communal entrance with key code and fob entry, alongside an entry phone system for additional peace of mind. Two lifts and a staircase provide easy access to the first floor, where the apartment opens into an impressively spacious private entrance hall. Excellent built-in storage is provided, along with an Appello emergency care system, with emergency pull cords positioned throughout the accommodation.
A standout feature of the apartment is the exceptionally spacious open-plan lounge and dining area. A beautiful bay window overlooks the communal gardens and allows plenty of natural light to fill the room, creating a bright and welcoming space with ample room for both comfortable seating and a dedicated dining area. An electric feature fire provides an attractive focal point and adds to the warm and inviting feel of the room.
The kitchen complements the living accommodation perfectly and is fitted with a modern range of cream gloss cabinetry, contrasting work surfaces and a breakfast bar. The kitchen provides excellent storage and preparation space alongside a range of integrated appliances, including a fridge and freezer, electric double oven, ceramic hob and slimline dishwasher, with plumbing also available for a washing machine.
Both bedrooms are exceptionally well proportioned and enjoy pleasant views over the beautifully maintained communal gardens. The impressive principal bedroom is particularly generous, featuring an extensive range of fitted wardrobes without compromising on bedroom space. The second bedroom is also a substantial double, making it ideal for guests, hobbies or additional living space.
The bathroom has been recently fitted with a luxurious contemporary suite, including a vanity wash basin with built-in storage, WC and a generous step-in shower enclosure. Thoughtful accessibility features include a wall-mounted grab rail, retractable shower seat and emergency pull cord, while recessed lighting, a heated towel rail and modern finishes complete the room.
Further benefits include UPVC double glazing, modern electric wall heaters and an emergency pull cord system connected to the Appello Care Line and the house manager when available, providing additional reassurance and security.
Residents have access to an excellent range of communal facilities, including an inviting residents' lounge where social activities take place, a fitness suite with sauna, communal storage and a guest suite for visiting friends and family. The development also benefits from beautifully maintained communal gardens and ample residents' parking.
A part-time house manager oversees the day-to-day running of the development, further enhancing the sense of security and community.
The location is another major advantage, with the apartment situated within easy reach of the shops, cafés and amenities of Churchtown Village. A local shopping area catering for everyday needs is just a matter of minutes away, adding to the excellent convenience of the location. Local doctors' surgeries and regular bus services are also close by, while Southport town centre and Lord Street are easily accessible via a number of routes, making this an excellent choice for those looking to enjoy an independent and convenient lifestyle.
The property is leasehold, with the remainder of a 125-year lease dating from 1 April 2001. The development is managed by FirstPort. The service charge for April 2024 to March 2025 was stated as £4,711 per annum, payable bi-annually, with ground rent stated as £310 per annum.
