About this property

Set on the first floor of the well-regarded Dower Court development, this purpose-built one-bedroom retirement apartment enjoys the convenience of lift access and a superb level position within the popular Preston area of Paignton. Residents' parking is available on a non-allocated, first come first served basis, adding further practicality for homeowners and visitors alike.

The accommodation is approached via a spacious entrance hallway, thoughtfully arranged with built-in storage cupboard fitted with shelving. The main living space comprises a comfortable lounge area that opens directly into the kitchen, creating a sociable, open-plan layout. The kitchen is well equipped with an electric oven and hob, stainless steel sink and drainer, washing machine and a freestanding fridge/freezer. From the lounge, the double bedroom provides excellent fitted storage, with built-in wardrobes and drawers extending along one wall.

Completing the interior is a contemporary shower room, finished with fully tiled walls and flooring. The suite includes a vanity unit incorporating a wash basin, concealed cistern WC and useful cupboard storage, complimented by a wall-mounted illuminated mirror. A walk-in double shower enclosure with electric shower over provides a stylish and accessible finishing touch.

Dower Court is further enhanced by attractive communal gardens to both the front and rear, featuring neatly kept lawns, raised and well-stocked flower beds and seating areas, ideal for enjoying the outdoors in a peaceful setting.

The location is a particular highlight, with excellent level access to a range of everyday amenities including Tesco, a doctors' surgery, sub post office and other local shopping facilities, all within comfortable walking distance. Main bus routes are also close by, providing convenient links to surrounding towns, while Preston beach and seafront can likewise be reached on foot.
