1 bedroom retirement property for sale

Located within a popular over-60s retirement development, this well-maintained one-bedroom apartment offers bright and spacious living with excellent potential for personalisation.

The property is accessed via a communal hallway leading to a private entrance. The entrance hallway is welcoming and practical, featuring a double-glazed window to the front, an entry phone system, SOS alarm, and two built-in cupboards, including an airing cupboard housing the immersion heater—ideal for keeping everyday essentials neatly tucked away.

The living room is a generous and light-filled space, with French doors opening onto a patio area, flanked by windows on either side. This connection to the courtyard garden creates a bright and peaceful atmosphere, perfect for both relaxing and entertaining. The room also provides direct access to the kitchen.

The kitchen is well-proportioned and practical, with a range of wall, drawer, and base units, including a pull-out larder cupboard. There’s a built-in electric hob and oven, stainless steel sink with drainer, and tiled splashbacks, plus space for both a washing machine and fridge freezer. A rear-facing window brings in natural light, making this a pleasant space to prepare meals.

The bedroom is a comfortable double, featuring a built-in double cupboard for convenient storage and a large window to the front which allows plenty of natural light to fill the room.

The bathroom includes a pedestal basin, low-level WC, and bath, with partially tiled walls, vinyl-style flooring, and both a heated towel rail and electric wall heater. An obscured double-glazed window to the front provides light and privacy.

The courtyard garden is a sun-soaked, low-maintenance space that offers the perfect setting for relaxing outdoors. Paved for ease of upkeep, it provides a private and peaceful spot to enjoy the fresh air, with plenty of potential for flower bedding or potted plants—ideal for those who enjoy a touch of gardening without the commitment of a larger plot.

While the apartment has been carefully maintained over the years, it would benefit from some minor cosmetic updating, offering the opportunity to refresh and personalise the space.

This home represents an ideal opportunity to enjoy comfortable, independent living within a supportive community, just moments from local amenities. St Paul’s Court is centrally located in the heart of Rusthall, a vibrant village that offers a range of independent shops including a butcher, baker, chemist, hardware store, and health shop. There is a strong sense of community on-site, further enhanced by the presence of a house manager’s office and a shared launderette for residents’ convenience. For those looking to explore further afield, a reliable bus service runs every 12 minutes into Tunbridge Wells town centre, where you’ll find a wide variety of pubs, restaurants, bars, and retail options—making it easy to stay connected while enjoying the tranquillity of village life.
