Secure, low-maintenance retirement living with communal facilities and support.
Second-floor one-bedroom apartment with walk-in wardrobe
A well-presented second-floor retirement apartment in Horsley Place, built in 2015 and designed for over-60s. The one-bedroom home has a generous double bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe, a contemporary wet-room style shower, and a modern fitted kitchen. Underfloor heating and double glazing provide comfort, while a video entry system and 24-hour emergency callline deliver peace of mind.
The development offers practical communal facilities including a homeowners’ lounge for social events, landscaped gardens, a guest suite (bookable for visitors, fees apply), lift access, and a mobility scooter store with charging points. A House Manager is on site during weekday mornings and the service charge covers building maintenance, external cleaning, communal utilities and the apartment’s underfloor heating.
Notable costs and conditions are straightforward: the property is leasehold with about 115–116 years remaining, an annual service charge of £4,146.49 (until 30/09/2025) and ground rent of £425 per year. Parking is by allocated space with a permit fee of £250 per year and guest-suite bookings incur separate charges. The apartment suits someone seeking low-maintenance living in a quiet village setting rather than a large private garden.
Located within easy walking distance of Cranbrook town centre, the development sits in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with local shops, cafes and regular bus services; Staplehurst station is the nearest rail link. This apartment is best for a downsizer wanting manageable, secure retirement living with social facilities and on-site support, accepting communal costs as part of the convenience offered.
