1 bed flat for sale

Park Court, Wickham Road, Beckenham BR3

Chain free one-bedroom retirement flat on the second floor of Park Court, Wickham Road, directly opposite the beautiful Kelsey Park and within easy reach of Beckenham's shops, cafés and transport links. Measuring approximately 455 sq ft (42.3 sq m), the property offers well-proportioned accommodation alongside a range of communal facilities designed specifically for retirement living.

The entrance hall leads into a generous reception room (17'4 x 10'6), with a large window bringing in plenty of natural light and ample space for separate sitting and dining areas. The adjoining kitchen (7'3 x 5'5) has been modernised and provides a practical, separate cooking space.

The bedroom (14' x 8'8) is another good-sized room and benefits from built-in mirrored wardrobes. The shower room (6'8 x 5'5) has been adapted from the original bathroom, with the bath replaced by a walk-in shower enclosure for easier access, while the remainder of the suite is more traditional in finish.

Park Court offers considerably more than the flat itself. Residents have use of a spacious communal lounge on the ground floor, providing a sociable space within the development, together with a communal laundry room and the support of a part-time development manager. There is also a guest suite with twin beds and its own shower room, available for visiting family and friends for a nominal charge.

Outside, the communal gardens are a particularly attractive feature. To the rear is a well-maintained garden for residents to enjoy, while a tree-lined pathway leads towards the main entrance through further lawned communal grounds. Residents' and visitors' parking is available to the rear via the driveway alongside the building, subject to the development's permit arrangements.
