House For Sale £269,000
A spacious two-bedroom, mid-terrace cottage with patio garden and garage. The property is located on a purpose-built retirement development for the over 55s. Management services are provided by Cognatum Estates, a not-for-profit organisation and one of the UK's leading companies in retirement housing.
North Mill Place is a fascinating place to live, built on the site of a mill that was operated by the same family for 250 years and with many of the original buildings and pieces of machinery still preserved, including the millstone. Converted period buildings face the old mill yard and there are two- and three-bedroom cottages built in the former paddock, now a delightful courtyard with a magnificent walnut tree and a pond.
Halstead is a quintessential English country town on the Essex/Suffolk border. The high street has excellent shops, offering two supermarkets, a delicatessen, a number of independent retailers, several banks, a leisure centre with a swimming pool, a library and a range of restaurants, pubs and cafés. There is also a theatre, the Queens Hall, and the public gardens play host to various band concerts all through the summer. Two golf clubs are close by and ramblers are well-served by a river walk that runs through the town. Marks Hall Gardens and Arboretum, just eight miles down the road, features an impressive global tree collection set in more than 200 acres of historic landscape, and the 110-foot Norman keep at Hedingham Castle and the luxurious traditional mansion at Kentwell Hall are also nearby.
Cognatum Estates Limited maintains, repairs and insures all the buildings, arranges the window cleaning and refuse collection and tends to the gardens and grounds thereby freeing owners and residents from these responsibilities. There is a laundry room on-site and a guest suite provides comfortable accommodation for family and friends. A minibus is available to take residents on regular shopping trips. Resident Estate Managers make this an ideal 'Lock Up & Leave' property and are on hand to provide support and help when needed. The cost of providing these services is shared equally between all properties.
150 year lease (from 1995), no ground rent and 55+ age covenant.
