This modern development of 19 luxury apartments has been specifically designed to house the actively retired, yet incorporates many security and labour saving devices.
"Kingsmead House" occupies an excellent setting combining the convenience of a town centre location with the semi rural atmosphere of a country setting, including a well screened and private garden fronting the River Monnow, with many of the apartments enjoying pastoral views extending towards Osbaston, the Buckholt Wood and beyond, and yet the 'House' is literally within a stone's throw of a national Supermarket, an arcade of shops including Optician, Restaurant, Pet Shop etc, whilst the main street lies a minute or two away, with a Doctors' surgery, a Waitrose and a Marks and Spencer Food Market close by, together with a myriad of independent family run shops.
