Description
This McCarthy & Stone RETIREMENT development is one of Edinburgh's most sought after of its type, largely due to its location to the south of city and most convenient for shops & buses. Hall; Living/Dining room; Kitchen; Bedroom & Shower room. Plenty of storage. Modern Electric Heating; Double Glazing; Lovely shared gardens; Residents Parking if required. High quality residents' facilities. Bruce Street is a small cul de sac, off the thoroughfare of Balcarres Street and only a 10 minute walk from Edinburgh's famous Morningside Road. It's a bustling street of shops & cafes, bars & bistros and a Waitrose supermarket. It is therefore busy but this of course has many advantages…not least lots of amenities on the doorstep! In addition, several bus services pass by and motorists can quickly access the by-pass and motorway network. Edinburgh city centre is only 15-20 mins' by car, bus or taxi. The nearby neighbourhood of Bruntsfield is also a community in its own right. Residents' here can easily pop by Morningside Park, literally across the road. McCarthy & Stone are considered by many to be the foremost and most renowned developer specialising in the market sector of Retirement homes. "Stewart Terrace" was constructed around 10years ago and is a particularly fine example of their work exhibiting both robust building materials and design with an absolutely perfect location. The Bruce Street apartments are ostensibly an "Annexe" to the main building in Balcarres Street. The rooms in the apartment offer excellent space with the main public room big enough for lounging and dining; double bedroom with walk-in wardrobe. It is well worth noting the extensive storage the flat offers.The development offers use of a communal lounge; shared laundry and there's a part-time house/duty manager Monday-Friday. There is a 24-hour care line.
