Compact two-bedroom home with lift access and communal facilities.
Purpose-built first-floor retirement flat for over-60s
A purpose-built first-floor retirement flat for over-60s, Pilots Place offers low-maintenance living with immediate occupation. The compact two-bedroom layout includes a light living room, practical kitchen and a bathroom with walk-in shower. Emergency pull cords and an on-site manager provide added reassurance.
Communal facilities are a strong selling point: lift access to all floors, a resident lounge, courtyard-style gardens and a bookable guest suite make visiting easier for friends and family. The flat is chain-free and comes with a long lease of approximately 152 years remaining.
Important practical points: the property uses electric storage heating and is double-glazed, with an EPC rating of C. The annual service charge is high (around £4,200–£4,300), and the wider area records very high crime levels—factors that will affect running costs and local perceptions.
This home suits someone seeking easy, sociable retirement living close to Gravesend town centre and fast rail links to London. It is compact and designed for convenience rather than entertaining large gatherings; prospective buyers should view to judge space and the community facilities for themselves.
