Bright two-bedroom retirement apartment in Homepine House, well-placed for Folkestone town centre and The Leas. The development offers reassuring communal living with a 24/7 emergency call system, on-site development manager, lift access and attractive shared gardens that lead toward coastal walks.
The flat is compact (approx. 503 sq ft) and suits downsizers who want low-maintenance living and social amenities rather than extensive private space. Interiors are described as light and practical with two bedrooms, a shower room and useful loft/store space for extra storage.
Practical points to note: the property is leasehold with about 57 years remaining. Some mortgage lenders can refuse or apply stricter terms on shorter leases, so buyers should check finance options early. Heating is electric storage heaters and the home runs on individual electricity supply.
Overall this is a convenient, community-focused retirement option for someone prioritising proximity to town, coastal walks and communal support rather than a large private garden or full modern heating system.
