1 bed Flat For Sale £247,000
A beautifully presented one bedroom apartment. Spacious balcony with sea views from the living room and bedroom.
Completed in 2012 by award-winning developers McCarthy Stone, Lantern Court is a flagship contemporary development occupying a commanding location with the most breath-taking views across the picturesque Ilfracombe Harbour, Lantern Hill, Capstone, the Bristol Channel and distant Welsh coast. Providing private apartments specifically for those over 60 years of age, the development enjoys a host of facilities for the benefit of home owners, not least of which is the beautiful communal lounge with large balcony and magnificent coastal views. In addition, there is a lift serving all floors, mobility scooter store, laundry room and a landscaped garden with harbour viewing deck. Further peace-of-mind is found in the service provided by our House Manager who will oversee the smooth running of the development. There is also a 24-hour emergency call system in the apartments and communal areas. A guest suite is available to receive family and friends for which a small charge per night is made.
It’s so easy to make new friends and to lead a busy and fulfilled life at Lantern Court; there are always plenty of regular activities to choose from including; coffee mornings, games and quiz nights, seasonal and themed events and occasional organised trips. Whilst there is something for everyone there is certainly no obligation to participate and home owners ‘dip in and out’ of activities as they wish.
Lantern Court is located just a short distance from the high street and sea front and local amenities which include a post office, pharmacy, hairdressers, bakers, banks and supermarkets. St. James’s park is adjacent to the development with pathways leading to the harbour.
