A spacious two-bedroom 2nd floor apartment with a large private roof terrace. The property is located on a purpose-built retirement development for the over 60s. Management services are provided by Cognatum Estates, a not-for-profit organisation and one of the UK's leading companies in retirement housing.

Turnpike Court is set in the grounds of Hapstead House, a grand Victorian mansion. Many of the properties are apartments in a single building, made from a mix of Midhurst sandstone and Michelmerch bricks, and all with a lift and video entry system. Surrounded by well-maintained gardens and lawns, each of the cottages has either a terrace or a balcony.

A few moments’ walk from the estate is the attractive high street of Ardingly, host to a bakery, a post office and a pub. There is also a weekly country market. Nearby is the South of England Agricultural Society Showground, which hosts many country events throughout the year, and the Ardingly Reservoir offers the opportunity to sail and fish. Also nearby are the Royal Botanic Gardens at Wakehurst Place, offering such spectacular walks among beautifully-kept flora that it is widely known as ‘Kew in the country’.

Cognatum Estates Limited maintains, repairs and insures all the buildings, arranges the window cleaning and refuse collection and tends to the gardens and grounds. There is a personal alarm system in every property and the resident Estate Managers are able to provide support and a helping hand when needed. There are two laundry rooms, two guest suites and a minibus for shopping trips. The cost of providing the services is shared equally between all properties. There are no restrictions on owning a property except that one resident must be over 60 years of age.

150 year lease (from 2002). No ground rent.
