Perfect location tempts downsizer to Baltic Wharf
Panoramic riverside views and a convenient location made Baltic Wharf the perfect choice for downsizer Elizabeth Adams.
The 77-year-old retired hairdresser has purchased a two-bedroom apartment at the Bloor Homes development in Totnes, Devon.
Located on St Peter’s Quay, the development enjoys a picturesque hillside setting overlooking the River Dart and is just a short five-minute walk from the town centre.
Elizabeth previously lived on the other side of the river in Bridgetown, but decided it was time to downsize from her four-bedroom semi-detached house to something more manageable.
And she used Bloor’s Home Exchange and House to Home schemes to ensure her move went as smoothly as possible.
Elizabeth said: “I consider myself very lucky to be living in the apartment I have purchased at Baltic Wharf and I am convinced I have made the right decision to move here. My home overlooks the River Dart and the large windows provide a wonderful panoramic view of the surrounding countryside.
“The location was very important to me, and this is ideal. It’s a beautiful and quiet area and yet close to the town centre, the shops and my doctor’s surgery.”
Using the Home Exchange scheme, Elizabeth didn’t have to worry about finding a buyer for her old home or paying estate agents fees. All of that was taken care of by Bloor, which made her an offer for the house based on independent valuations of the property.
Elizabeth also let Bloor take the strain when it came to packing, as she took advantage of the House to Home removals service which is available with all reservations made on the remaining apartments at Baltic Wharf.
She added: “The process couldn’t have been smoother thanks to the extremely helpful Bloor team. I would have no reservations in recommending the Home Exchange Scheme because everything went like clockwork.”
There is now just one one-bedroom apartment remaining for sale and a range of two-bedroom apartments at Baltic Wharf, priced from £189,950 to £274,950.
