1 bed Flat For Sale £200,000
A bright and spacious one bedroom retirement apartment on the ground floor
Summary
Francis Court is located in the heart of England, in the beautiful city of Worcester, a short distance from the River Severn and within easy access of the M5. Combining quintessential English charm and modern convenience Francis Court brings together the best of both worlds. Conveniently you’ll find a bus stop directly outside the development that will take you into the heart of the city, or should you choose to stay closer to home, you’ll find all your local amenities right on your doorstep.
Nestled in St George’s Square Conservation area and surrounded by stunning Georgian properties, Francis Court provides an idyllic location to enjoy retirement. Worcester provides plenty to do with its Cathedral, historic houses, cruises along the River Severn, countryside walks and beautiful gardens. Whatever your hobby, there’s something for everyone. Francis Court has been designed and constructed for modern living and is winner of Housing for Older People Award 2019. The apartments boast underfloor heating throughout, Sky/Sky+ connection points in living rooms and a walk in wardrobe in the master bedrooms.
The dedicated House Manager is on site during working hours to take care of the running of the development. There's no need to worry about the burden of maintenance costs as the service charge covers the cost of all external maintenance, gardening and landscaping, external window cleaning, buildings insurance, water rates and security systems. All energy costs of the laundry room, homeowners lounge and other communal areas are also covered in the service charge. For your peace of mind the development has camera door entry and 24-hour emergency call systems, should you require assistance.
The Homeowners' lounge provides a great space to socialise with friends and family. If your guests have travelled from afar, they can extend their stay by booking into the developments' Guest Suite (for a fee of £25 per night - subject to availability).
It is a condition of purchase that residents must meet the age requirement of 60 years or over.
