Property description
A fabulous opportunity to purchase a spacious, recently refurbished first floor 'retirement' apartment which forms part of a grade II listed converted brewery and offered for sale with the advantage of no onward chain. The building and associated house was converted into a range of individually designed one and two bedroom apartments in about 1986 aimed for active over 55s. The complex is situated where town and country merge and benefits from a bus route into Gillingham. Local facilities are available at Broad Robin where there is a convenience store with post office, computer shop and hairdresser. The town centre and mainline train station are a little further on. The property would make a great UK base during one's leisure years, bolt hole as well as a main residence. The apartment is heated via economy 7 electric heating, has secondary glazing to those windows which are not uPVC double glazed and has recently had new kitchen units fitted. Outside, there is a communal garden with drying area and nineteen parking spaces available for use of the complex which is just twenty one units plus there is additional parking close by. We believe that the lease was created in 1986 with a term of 99 years and that the flat owners own the freehold. There is a quarterly charge of £540. This includes the sinking fund.
