A well maintained and updated 2 bed ground floor flat with large outside store cupboard, small garden areas and communal ground and parking within walking distance of facilities
SITUATION: Eggardon Close is a tucked away former ex-local authority development comprising a mixture of houses and purpose-built flats, with No 29 being situated in a block backing onto St Mary's Primary School grounds and with views across to the hillside. There is a local Spar shop close by and the centre of the town of Beaminster lies some half-a-mile away with its good range of local facilities. The train station at Crewkerne lies some 8.6 miles away to the north and the coast at West Bay some 7.5 miles to the south.
THE PROPERTY comprises a ground floor flat at the end of a close and centred around a large communal parking area. The property is of traditional construction featuring brick elevations with uPVC double-glazed windows and offers fairly spacious accommodation with a good amount of storage cupboards including a large outside double-doored shed in a front extension which could accommodate a bicycle or mobility scooter. The flat and immediate area is on the level and hence ideal for those less active.
The property has been well maintained and modernised as necessary but offers potential for further improvement if desired. The kitchen is well fitted with modern and serviceable units and there is a wet room, together with some new internal doors. This would be ideal for a retired couple or family of 3 and the proximity to both primary and secondary schools is also perfect for this. With Clipper Tea factory being close by, this would also suit a local worker/s.
Flat 29 has a small private and well stocked herbeaceous bed to the front and a similar garden to the rear. On the side of the block is a communal outside space comprising a gravelled area with washing lines and a lawned play area.
There is no forward chain and the property is immediately available with furniture available by separate negotiation if required. If not required, the property will be emptied.
DIRECTIONS: From the centre of Beaminster, proceed north on the main A3066 road (Hogshill Street) and, at the mini-roundabout, take the first left signposted to Broadwindsor. After the turning to Stoke Abbott on the left, take the first right into Eggardon Close. Continue to the end of the road, bearing right and the property will be found to the eastern end of the parking area.
