Summary - Flat 23 Parkside Court, Kings Road, HERNE BAY CT6 5RP
1 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
One-bedroom retirement flat with on-site manager and no onward chain.
Centrally located in Herne Bay, short walk to shops and transport
A compact, well-presented one-bedroom retirement apartment in the centre of Herne Bay, offered with no onward chain. The McCarthy Stone development provides managed communal facilities including a house manager, 24-hour emergency pull-cord system, communal lounge, guest suite, laundry room and residents’ parking — useful for independent retirees seeking low-maintenance living close to shops, transport and the seafront.
The flat is bright thanks to a bay window and double glazing, and is sold with fitted kitchen and bedroom furniture in place. Practical features include an airing cupboard with hot water tank, intercom entry, and thermostatically controlled shower in an easily accessible shower room. Council Tax Band B and the modest floor area make this a manageable, economical home.
There are important considerations: the property sits in a high flood-risk area and the local crime level and wider area deprivation are reported as very high/very deprived. It is leasehold with c.91 years remaining, an annual service charge of £3,133.73 and ground rent of £426.28. Heating is by electric storage heaters, which can be costly compared with gas systems.
This apartment will suit a purchaser prioritising convenience, on-site support and low internal maintenance. Buyers requiring larger living space, a long lease extension, or lower environmental/flood risk should weigh these factors carefully before viewing.
