A well-presented two-bedroom end-of-terrace cottage in a managed over-60s development, offered freehold and chain-free. The home provides independent retirement living with the reassurance of a Resident Manager and a 24-hour emergency alarm system, plus private courtyard garden and access to attractive communal grounds. Its central Cranbrook location places shops, services and the High Street within easy walking distance.
The layout suits comfortable day-to-day living: a ground-floor dining room leading to a living room and kitchen, plus a cloakroom/WC. Two good-sized first-floor bedrooms include built-in wardrobes in the main bedroom, with a family bathroom upstairs. The property is modest in size (about 882 sq ft) and constructed in the early 1990s, with double glazing and mains gas heating via boiler and radiators.
Practical positives include no onward chain, freehold tenure, and fast broadband with excellent mobile signal. Be aware of a modest annual ground rent (£300) and council tax band D. The home is multi-story, so the upstairs bedrooms and bathroom may be less suitable for buyers with limited mobility. The plot is small, and local area crime statistics are higher than average for the town.
Overall this home will appeal to downsizers seeking a low‑maintenance retirement setting close to Cranbrook’s amenities and schools, but buyers wanting level-access living, a larger garden, or a quieter low-crime area should consider these factors before viewing.
