Description

Apartment 23 in on the ground floor and easily accessed both externally as doors from the lounge open out onto a small garden area or internally via the main entrance and reception area. The spacious well maintained accommodation includes a large entrance hall, lounge/dining room, a particularly well equipped kitchen (with hob, fridge freezer, oven and grill, dishwasher and washer dryer), two good sized bedrooms and a shower/wetroom with WC. It also has a very effective heating system, double glazed windows, fitted carpets and curtains.

Externally there are well maintained and mature communal grounds for the benefit of all the residents. In recent years Apartment 23 has tended to adopt the area of garden and well stocked flower border immediately outside its lounge. It should be stressed however that this is not officially included in the tenure of the apartment itself. There is plenty of room for residents and visitors to park although it should be noted that individual spaces are not formally allocated and therefore operate on a first come, first served basis. Clarence Park benefits from a well being nurse visiting three times a week and regular car services (available upon request for an extra cost)
