This two-bedroom ground-floor apartment at Elkington House offers low-maintenance retirement living with practical, modern finishes. The open-plan living/dining room leads to a patio overlooking well-kept communal gardens, and the principal bedroom benefits from a fitted walk-in wardrobe. The apartment measures about 82.3 sqm (886 sq ft), with a separate kitchen, utility cupboard, shower room and a separate WC — comfortable space for everyday living or hosting visiting family.
The development is designed for retirement living: an on-site estate manager available 24/7, a guest suite for overnight visitors, a bistro serving seasonal menus, and optional personal care and support. Built in 2017 with a long lease (996 years remaining) and an estimated SAP rating up to 83, the building offers modern construction and relatively efficient thermal performance.
Notable practicalities: heating is by electric room heaters rather than gas central heating, and the apartment is leasehold. The property sits in an area with higher crime rates and is classed as very deprived; buyers should consider local safety and community aspects. Transport links are strong — Dover Priory station is about 0.7 miles away — and mobile and broadband connectivity are good. Council tax is very low, which may reduce running costs.
This apartment suits someone seeking a secure, community-focused retirement setting with on-site facilities and low maintenance. It offers immediate move-in readiness with potential to personalise, but buyers wanting gas heating or a quieter area should factor that into their decision.
