A bright, low-maintenance two-bedroom cottage arranged for independent retirement living in central Staplehurst. At about 757 sq ft, the layout includes a kitchen/dining area, an en-suite main bedroom with walk-in wardrobe, a second shower room and a private landscaped garden — an easy-care home for those wanting comfort without ongoing gardening chores.
The development centres on communal life: Owners’ Lounge with coffee bar, organised social events and a Lodge Manager on site. Security features such as a camera entry system, intruder and fire alarms, and a 24-hour emergency Careline provide practical reassurance. Allocated off-street parking and a furnished guest suite add convenience for visitors.
Practical positives include energy-efficient heating and freehold tenure. The setting is a pleasant small-town fringe location close to shops, public transport and good local schools, while green space nearby keeps the feel relaxed and semi-rural. The property is specifically for residents aged over 60 and suits people seeking sociable, managed retirement living.
Considerations: the cottage is modest in size (about 757 sq ft), so storage and entertaining space are limited compared with larger family homes. Broadband speeds are average and the development sits in an area with average crime levels — sensible to weigh these practicalities alongside the social benefits. Communal living and scheduled events may not suit buyers wanting complete privacy.
