Flat for sale in Sturminster Newton DT10, 1 Bedroom

A bright and spacious one double bedroom top floor apartment enjoying views over roof tops to the hills and countryside and enjoying a prime location just a short stroll to the town centre where there is a range of independent shops and chain stores, doctor and dentist surgeries as well as a variety of entertainment venues. The apartment is especially designed for those over 55 years and is beautifully presented in excellent condition benefiting from uPVC double glazing, some electric heating and a 24 hour emergency care line.
