2 Bedroom Retirement Property

Apartment 21 Gilman Court offers rare scale, light, and flexibility - set within the peaceful Bishopstoke Park retirement village for the over 65s. Measuring an impressive 1440 square feet, this dual aspect, top-floor home is ideal for those downsizing in square footage but not in lifestyle.
The bright and spacious living/dining room benefits from windows on two sides, with access to two separate balconies. The south-facing balcony is perfect for catching the sun, while the second offers open views towards Breach Lane, giving you options for both morning and afternoon outdoor relaxation.
Just off the dining space is a smart grey shaker-style kitchen, fitted with a generous range of cupboards and integrated appliances including an oven, microwave, dishwasher and fridge-freezer - everything you need to feel right at home.
The master bedroom is a real retreat - large and dual aspect, with a range of fitted wardrobes and a stylish en-suite shower room. The second bedroom enjoys east-facing views over the care home gardens and features a walk-in wardrobe and its own bathroom with over-bath shower and Velux window, perfect for guests or a live-in companion.
The welcoming entrance hall is wide and light-filled thanks to a Velux roof window and even offers space for a desk. Two handy storage cupboards are joined by a separate utility room housing the washer-dryer and room for cleaning essentials.
The apartment features neutral carpets, underfloor heating, and quality window dressings - which can be included in the sale. Energy-efficient and move-in ready, this is a standout property offering comfort, space and style in equal measure.
Residents of Bishopstoke Park benefit from outstanding on-site amenities including a wellness centre with gym, pool, spa and salon, plus a restaurant, bar, village shop and full activities programme. Optional care and housekeeping services are available to support your lifestyle both now and in the future.
