About this home

*Reduced to cover first three years of service charges* Situated within the ever-popular Parkside Court Retirement Home on Kings Road, Herne Bay, this well-presented one bedroom purpose-built apartment offers comfortable, low-maintenance living in a highly convenient and sought-after location.

The apartment has been enhanced with new flooring throughout, creating a fresh and modern feel. A particular highlight is the spacious lounge/diner, which, due to its favourable positioning within the building, enjoys two windows. This rare feature allows an abundance of natural light to flood the room, making it noticeably brighter and more inviting than many others in the development, while still offering ample space for both seating and dining furniture.

The accommodation also comprises a fitted kitchen, a well-proportioned double bedroom with space for wardrobes, and a bathroom. A useful storage cupboard off the hallway further adds to the practicality of the layout. Parkside Court is renowned for its friendly community atmosphere and excellent communal facilities, which include a residents’ lounge, laundry facilities, and well-maintained communal areas, providing opportunities for socialising and peace of mind. The building is serviced by a lift and benefits from an on-site manager/emergency call system, and secure entry phone system, offering reassurance for residents and their families.

The location on Kings Road is a major advantage, being within easy reach of Herne Bay town centre, the seafront, shops, cafés, and local amenities, as well as good transport links. Pleasant walks and green spaces nearby further enhance the lifestyle on offer.

An ideal opportunity for those seeking a bright, well-located retirement apartment within a popular and well-regarded development in Herne Bay.
