For good reason, this retirement development in the heart of Wye has always proven highly sought after. -- Greg Wood, Director
#TheGardenOfEngland
An extremely desirable 2 bedroom ground floor apartment in this exclusive retirement development of just 27 individual properties with the most beautiful landscaped courtyards and just a short walk from all village amenities.
With a private garden, 2 bathrooms and a car port
Sold with no onward chain.
Situation
The property is situated just off Bridge Street within the conservation area and walking distance to all village amenities. Wye is a charming village which benefits from great shops - including coffee shops, restaurants and pubs, butcher, Co-op, beauticians, organic farm, Post Office, local award-winning vineyards and hairdressers. There is also a Farmers Market on the first and third Saturday of the month, a doctors’ surgery, a dentist and well regarded schools (Lady Joanna Thornhill and Wye Free School). Wye also boasts its own station offering a fast and early morning commuter train to London St Pancras (37 minutes). There is a frequent bus service to Ashford and the train line provides the most convenient link to Canterbury. It has excellent road links to Ashford on the A20 and Canterbury via the A28. Ashford Town has further shopping and educational facilities including private and grammar schools, a McArthur Glen Outlet and a Waitrose. Historical Canterbury is twelve miles away with its magnificent Cathedral, dating back to 597AD, in its centre. Wye itself is set in the North Downs, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and there are plenty of public footpaths to make exploring the area very accessible.
Stonegate
Stonegate is a superb development of just 27 individually designed properties set around two beautifully landscaped courtyards designed by a Chelsea Flower Show Gold Award winner. Security and safety of residents has been of particular note in the design, with personal 24 hour emergency alarms and smoke alarms and on-site cameras, as well as a part time manager. A condition of occupancy is that the principal resident has to be at least 55 years of age. The management company and freeholder is Grange Management Limited. A noteworthy feature to the development is the Club House , with regular art class, coffee mornings and exercise class. This can also be booked for private function by leaseholders.
A guest suite is available to both residents and their families, together with the croquet lawn.
13 Stonegate overlooks the second courtyard, Green Court, which is extremely pretty with immaculately clipped small hedges, trees, arbours and bench seats. As you drive into the courtyard, No. 13 is just past Fountain garden and houses with the entrance just before the second mews houses. The property is in good order throughout and offers spacious and light living accommodation with access to a private cottage style garden and facing due West.
Inside, the accommodation is well proportioned with two double bedrooms both enjoying en-suites (with a Gainsborough Chair assistance bath in the main bathroom). The property enjoys gas central heating, a new gas fire in the living room, newly fitted carpet in the living room, a water softener and generally good décor throughout. There is a fitted alarm system.
Tenure and Service Charge
The property is leasehold for the term of 999 years from 1996 at a peppercorn annual ground rent. The freehold interest is held by the management company (Grange) and the monthly management charge is in the region of £340pm.
As part of this charge, a morning manager is on hand to assist residents two days a week (which we understand is currently being extended to 5 days a week), but does not live on site.
Grange is responsible for the building’s insurance. They also arrange for window cleaning, refuse collection, alarm and surveillance systems as well as tending to the communal grounds and gardens. Pets are allowed, subject to the agreement of Grange.
Agents Note
The sale is subject to grant of probate.
