Chain-free one-bedroom retirement flat with on-site support, parking and garden — refurbishment opportunity.
House Manager and 24-hour emergency lifeline included
Set within the managed McCarthy & Stone development of Parkside Court, this one-bedroom retirement apartment offers low-maintenance, centrally located living close to Herne Bay’s shops, services and seafront. The development includes a House Manager, 24-hour emergency lifeline, communal lounge, laundry, guest room, residents’ parking and well-kept gardens — practical conveniences for independent retirement living.
The flat provides a bright lounge with a bay window, a double bedroom, small fitted kitchen and wet room. At about 461 sq ft the layout suits a single occupant or couple seeking compact accommodation with straightforward access to local amenities and public transport.
Buyers should note clear practical considerations: the property is leasehold (approximately 91 years remaining), with an annual service charge (£2,763.30) and ground rent (£426.28). Heating is by electric storage heaters and the kitchen is dated, presenting obvious refurbishment potential. There is also a high local flood risk and the area records very high crime levels — both important factors for location-sensitive buyers.
This chain-free apartment will appeal to downsizers who prioritise on-site support and convenience and who are comfortable budgeting for service charges, possible modernisation and who will assess flood and local safety implications before committing.
