Knights Lodge is a delightful purpose built one bedroom property
Over 60's apartment
Peaceful location
A stones throw away from the heart of Lymington High Street
Lift access
Wonderful Penthouse living with far reaching river views. Knights Lodge is a delightful purpose built one bedroom property for the over 60s offering independent accommodation in a peaceful location but still very much in the heart of the historic town of Lymington and hence easy reach of the town’s amenities, high street, train station and marinas.
The property is within an easy short walk of all amenities including Lymington station, doctors surgeries and chemists, library, church and community centre. The beautiful Georgian market town of Lymington, with its cosmopolitan shopping and picturesque harbour has two large deep water marinas and sailing clubs for which the town has gained its status as a world renowned sailing resort, as well as an open-air seawater bath that was built in 1833. Lymington has a number of renowned restaurants and designer boutiques and is surrounded by the outstanding natural beauty of the New Forest National Park. On Saturday, a market is held in the High Street, the origins of which probably date back to the 13th century. To the north are the New Forest villages of Brockenhurst and Lyndhurst and Junction 1 of the M27 which links to the M3 for access to London. There is also a branch line train link to Brockenhurst Railway Station (approx. 5.5 miles) which provides a half hourly service to London Waterloo with a journey time of approximately 90 minutes.
The apartment occupies the best position within the complex with far reaching views across Lymington chimney pots and impressive views across the Solent, picking up Lymington River and beyond the ferry to the Isle of Wight. Knights Lodge is cleverly designed to provide completely private individual apartments and also offers a lodge manager and communal lounge/bar/coffee area with Wifi and group activities arranged throughout the year.
Churchill have built retirement properties for over 20 years and now have vast experience in the business, continually striving and achieving the accolade of being the retirement builder of choice.
The very high standard of build is obvious as soon as you enter the apartment. The penthouse has been individually designed maximising space, light and privacy, as well as the most of the impressive views.
The apartment has a video entry system, intruder alarm, smoke detectors, 24 hour support system, and a multi locking system to the front door. All windows are double glazed as well as an energy efficient, low carbon heating system. There is plenty of storage, non-slip flooring to the shower rooms, free parking and a guest suite for visitors.
A lift travels to the third floor with the front door of the apartment opening into a wide hallway with convenient storage cupboard. The lounge facing East and South and bathes the room with light . A luxury fully equipped kitchen is off here and has been upgraded from the original spec to offer a full length fridge freezer, integrated washing machine, a range of work tops and fitted cupboard units and a fitted oven and electric hob. The hallway also leads to the double master bedroom with fitted wardrobes and far reaching views. Adjacent to the bedroom is a luxury shower room.
The property has beautiful landscaped gardens with a variety of colourful plantings, shrubs, bushes, trees and lawns, all designed to enhance and encourage an outdoor lifestyle. In addition, there is ample residents parking.
