Churchfield Road, Poole, BH15

A well presented and spacious 2 double bedroom second floor apartment, set within Horizons, an outstanding McCarthy Stone retirement development for the over 70s, completed in 2017. Horizons have been thoughtfully designed to provide a comfortable and sociable lifestyle, with contemporary communal areas, an elegant residents' bistro/restaurant, and welcoming spaces to relax and meet fellow residents. The accommodation itself comprises of a welcoming entrance hall, spacious lounge/dining room with access to a large balcony, fully fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, two generous double bedrooms, wet room and separate cloakroom. The apartment also benefits from a private parking space, underfloor heating and an attractive outlook across the communal gardens, Poole Park and beyond. Residents benefit from a 24-hour emergency call system, on-site support, passenger lifts to all floors, secure entry systems and a stylish residents' bistro, creating an environment where help and assistance are available whenever needed, while still allowing residents to enjoy their independence and own private space. This development offers a particularly appealing alternative for those looking to downsize without compromising on quality or lifestyle, while providing additional peace of mind for family members knowing that support is available at all times. Although the maintenance charges may initially seem high, it covers a range of benefits, including 24-hour support, emergency call system, private water and sewerage charges, and the added peace of mind of having assistance available when needed. When compared with the cost of residential or nursing home accommodation, which can be equivalent to the monthly charge here for just one week, it offers a considerably more affordable way to retain your own home and independence.
