A bright, upper-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment arranged for easy, low-maintenance living. The well-kept development offers communal lounge, garden, laundry and a guest suite — useful extras for visitors and socialising. The flat’s 19' lounge and fitted kitchen give a comfortable living space suited to single occupants or couples.
Practical points to note: heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, and the property sits in a neighbourhood with higher crime and local deprivation indicators. Service charges and ground rent are significant and should be checked: the current service charge is shown as £1,829.85 twice yearly and ground rent £290.69 twice yearly (vendor’s solicitor to confirm).
The apartment is chain-free with 96 years remaining on a 125-year lease, built in 1996. Its location is convenient — within walking distance of Swanley town centre, Asda, local amenities and the station — which supports easy shopping and travel. Overall this is a practical, well-proportioned retirement home for someone seeking communal support and central convenience, provided the service costs and electric heating suit your budget.
