Entrance And Communal Areas:

Eugenie House is a superb example of Georgian architecture: The grand entrance with period stone surround leads into a well-maintained communal hallway with doors off to an impressive residents' lounge, manager's office, a laundry room with washing machines and dryers, visitor guest suite, lift access to all levels, downstairs WC and rear door to the communal gardens. With floor to ceiling windows overlooking the terraced Crescent, the communal lounge boasts a well-stocked library and piano – including a kitchen area off to the side with tea/coffee making facilities - where residents can enjoy coffee mornings and social get togethers.

Independent Living

The elegant Grade II* listed building provides independent stress-free living in a quiet, secure and pleasant setting for those who are still economically active in their 50s to retirees. With spiralling energy costs forming the single largest expense for most householders, the inclusion of central heating and hot water together with free laundry facilities, represents excellent value for money. The emergency Careline system is optional but provides peace of mind for elderly residents. An added bonus is that residents also have unrestricted access to the beautiful York Gardens beneath the Crescent where theatrical productions are staged during the summer months.
