Property description
Situated on the ground floor of the main building at Bishopstoke Park, opposite the sensory garden, this bright and beautifully positioned one-bedroom apartment is ideal for those seeking convenience, comfort and a sunny spot to call home.
Set on a corner, 35 Garnier Drive enjoys an abundance of natural light and the rare benefit of two private patio areas - one accessed from the living room and the other from the bedroom - perfect for sitting out with a book, tending to a few pots, or simply watching the world go by. There is even a cat flap fitted ready for you if you'd like to bring moggy along. Bishopstoke Park is pet friendly.
The living space is well-proportioned and freshly presented, with recently refitted carpets, electric curtains and a modern white kitchen fully equipped with integrated appliances. The spacious bedroom includes new curtains and built-in wardrobes, while the level access walk-in shower room offers a generous built-in storage cupboard. There's also a useful second storage cupboard in the hallway.
Being within the main building, you're only a short stroll from everything the village has to offer - whether that's the on-site restaurant, bar, wellness centre, hair salon or village shop.
Exclusively for those aged 65 and over, Bishopstoke Park offers a friendly and secure setting with a wealth of facilities and optional support available should your needs change in the future - all surrounded by beautifully landscaped grounds and peaceful woodland walks.
