Located in a popular retirement development for the over 60s, this well-presented one-bedroom apartment offers charming sea views from the living room, private balcony, kitchen, and bedroom. Set just off the seafront in Margate, the property is ideal for those looking to enjoy a peaceful coastal lifestyle while being close to local shops, transport links, and the buzz of the Old Town.
The accommodation is bright and welcoming throughout. The spacious lounge leads directly onto your own private balcony – perfect for enjoying your morning coffee with the sea breeze and a view in the background. The fitted kitchen also benefits from its own sea-facing outlook, and the double bedroom is generously sized with built-in wardrobes and plenty of natural light. There’s also a modern shower room and a large storage cupboard off the hallway.
The development offers a great lifestyle balance – secure, sociable, and well-equipped. Residents enjoy access to a communal lounge, beautifully kept gardens, lift access to all floors, and an on-site house manager. A 24-hour emergency pull cord system is in place throughout the building, and a guest suite is available for visiting friends and family.
You’re extremely well-connected here. The Loop bus stop is right outside the building, providing quick and regular links to Margate town centre, Ramsgate, Broadstairs, and Westwood Cross Shopping Centre. The beach is just a short walk away, and local shops, cafes, and essentials are close by, making it easy to stay independent and enjoy the very best of coastal living.
Ground rent is £405 per year, and the service charge is £8,000 annually.
