Compact, low-maintenance retirement flat with concierge and social facilities.
Second-floor one-bedroom retirement apartment, about 52 sq m (560 sq ft)
Apartment 48 at Elkington House is a bright, one-bedroom retirement flat arranged over the second floor, finished in a neutral contemporary style. The living/dining room opens to a Juliet balcony with pleasant urban views across Dover; the separate fitted kitchen includes integrated appliances and the bedroom benefits from a fitted walk-in wardrobe. Shared facilities include landscaped communal gardens, an on-site bistro, guest suite and an estate manager available 24/7.
Designed for later living, the development offers personal care and support if needed and easy access to Dover Priory station (about 0.7 miles). The property’s SAP rating of up to 83 and average thermal performance are practical pluses, and the long lease (996 years) provides ownership security for the long term.
Prospective buyers should note this is a leasehold retirement apartment with electric room heating (no gas central heating) which can affect running costs. The building sits in a postcode area flagged as very deprived and with higher local crime levels — important factors for personal safety and resale to consider. Council tax is very cheap, and broadband and mobile signal are strong.
Overall this flat suits someone seeking compact, low-maintenance retirement accommodation with on-site support and social facilities. It will particularly appeal to downsizers who prioritise convenience and communal amenities, but buyers requiring lower-crime neighbourhoods or cheaper ongoing heating should weigh those considerations.
