Full Details for 1 Bedroom Flat for sale in Alton, GU34 :
Enjoying a lovely Southerly outlook over the landscaped communal gardens and open space beyond, a first floor 1 double bedroom retirement apartment benefiting from replacement uPVC double glazing and a prestigious level setting beside the town centre.
Description
Incorporating a lift and residents parking, this revered development was built in 1989 by McInerney Homes and this middle floor apartment is in a distinctive three storey block of varying sized mainly 1 bedroom apartments in an age exclusive scheme (minimum 60 years of age). The accommodation layout enables independent access to all the rooms from the reception hall, which features 3 built-in cupboards. Characteristics include ash effect internal doors with brass finished handles, double or triple openers and a white internal finish to the replacement windows, integrated cooking appliances in the kitchen, Economy 7 electric storage heating, and power and light switchplates at a user friendly height. There is also a communal entryphone system and emergency pullcords as detailed below.
Location
The Cooperage is a small mews style private courtyard consisting of 34 age restricted apartments and cottages, and lies directly between Lenten Street, Alton's finest town street, and Westbrooke Gardens, the central public gardens, which have a programme of open air events, a bandstand and a bowling green. The neighbourhood includes the Market Square, town shops and stores, restaurants and inns, a library, community centre and walks beside the Wey Stream as well as through the town centre. The ambience of this old market town includes a weekly street market, regular specialist and historic events, local societies, and the Curtis Museum and the Allen Gallery. There are Sainsbury's and M & S in-town stores, a station (Waterloo line) with an adjacent Waitrose store, fitness clubs, doctors surgeries and, on the outskirts, a sports centre and two golf courses. Alton is renowned for its Civil War history, the Watercress steam railway line and its much cherished connections with Jane Austen including an annual Victorian cricket match held on The Butts.
