This top-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment in Oakland Court offers a convenient, low-maintenance base close to Herne Bay’s seafront, high street and railway station. The dual-aspect sitting/dining room brings natural light, and the open-plan layout plus walk-in wardrobe maximise usable space for comfortable living.
Oakland Court was built in 1988 and provides retirement-focused amenities: lift access to all floors, a resident manager, communal lounge, laundry room and a guest suite for visitors. The property is chain free and has a practical footprint of about 625 sq ft, making it suitable for independent retired living or as a seaside pied-à-terre.
Buyers should note that the interior is dated and would benefit from modernisation. Heating is by electric storage heaters and the main fuel is electricity, broadband speeds are slow, and the area records very high crime statistics. There is a medium flood risk locally and the lease has 88 years remaining — important factors for long-term ownership and finance considerations.
For those seeking a retirement property with communal support and an excellent location near the beach and town amenities, this apartment offers clear potential once updated. Viewing is recommended to assess the layout, condition and the communal facilities in person.
