PROPERTY Beatrice Court - an idyllic retirement L ocated in the beautiful seaside resort of Shanklin, and just an easy walk away from the town centre with its array of individual shops and amenities, Beatrice Court provides the ultimate in carefree retirement living. The development of high specification one and two-bedroom apartments offers the double benefits of home ownership, but with fewer chores and responsibilities – leaving plenty of time to enjoy the Good Life. It means owners enjoy the privacy of their own home, but with a community of friends and neighbours just outside the door. A House Manager is on hand to take care of the day to day running of the building and assist with enquiries, whilst there’s a luxurious communal lounge for meeting with friends and neighbours, or joining the regular coffee mornings and events. With all aspects of the building taken care of and gardens looked after, maintenance is not something that owners need to worry about, leaving time for the more important things in life. As a location, Shanklin couldn’t be better: as well as its bus terminal giving access to the rest of the Island, the ease of getting to Portsmouth or Southampton makes this a prime location for those wanting to make regular trips to London or ev en joining your cruise ship at one of the nearby international ports. 96 www.visitilife.com
