Description
This meticulously maintained and generously proportioned one-bedroom flat is situated on the upper ground floor of the highly sought-after McCarthy & Stone retirement development in central Rutherglen. The property offers an ideal living space for those seeking both comfort and independence, with the added benefit of secure, supportive living in a vibrant community.
Though the flat is accessed from Johnstone Drive at ground level, it occupies a first-floor position at the rear of the building, due to the lower ground floor layout. The apartment enjoys an abundance of natural light, with south-facing windows providing a bright, airy atmosphere and an attractive open outlook.
The building is accessed via a secure entrance leading into a welcoming communal hallway, which includes a residents' lounge, as well as lift and stair access to all levels. A solid timber door opens into the flat’s inviting entrance hallway, which is complemented by a spacious walk-in storage cupboard.
The focal point of the home is the impressive lounge/dining room, which features a fireplace and French doors leading to a shallow Juliet balcony. The adjoining kitchen is well-appointed, offering an excellent range of wall and base units, complemented by contrasting work surfaces. It is fully equipped with an electric oven, hob, and ample space for additional freestanding appliances.
The generously sized double bedroom boasts built-in fitted wardrobes that provide ample storage with both hanging and shelf space. The shower room has been thoughtfully upgraded with a full-width shower enclosure, providing a practical and stylish solution for everyday use.
Further enhancements to the property include electric heating, double glazing, warden, and access to the 24-hour care line service, which ensures peace of mind for residents. The development also offers a variety of communal amenities, including a residents' lounge, laundry room, guest suite, and beautifully maintained garden grounds. Ample parking is available at the rear of the building for residents.
The property sits within a small select development in Rutherglen adjacent to Overton Park and is conveniently placed for access to a host of local amenities including excellent public transport services, shops, cafes, newsagents, pharmacy, and Rutherglen Health Centre. The nearby Rutherglen Main Street provides a more extensive range of amenities including train station. In addition to this, there are excellent road links close by giving easy access to Glasgow City Centre and the Central Belt motorway network system.
