The adjoining kitchen is modern and fully fitted with a range of wall and base units, alongside integrated appliances including a fridge, freezer, electric oven, and hob.
Accommodation continues with a comfortable double bedroom which boasts views to the rear aspect and includes fitted wardrobes to maximise space. The property is served by a recently upgraded shower room, which has been designed with accessibility in mind. It comprises a large walk-in shower cubicle with a mains-fed shower, a vanity sink unit, and a heated towel rail. For added peace of mind, there is an emergency pull cord system installed. The property is offered on a part-furnished basis, making the move-in process smoother for temporary or trial tenants.
Beyond the private quarters, residents at Royal Arch Court enjoy access to excellent communal facilities that foster a supportive community. These include a residents' lounge for socialising, a laundry room, and well-maintained communal gardens with seating areas. There is also an overnight room available for visitors. While the property is located in a prime city spot, it offers visitor parking, with possible additional parking options at the nearby Roman Catholic cathedral (subject to availability). With secure level access and no immediate long-term commitment required, this is a perfect solution for those navigating their retirement options.
