This beautifully presented one-bedroom, first floor apartment sits in the heart of the highly sought-after Azure, Countryside development on St. Mary’s Island, offering a lifestyle that blends tranquillity, convenience and modern living.

Built in 2019 and still benefiting from four years of NHBC warranty, the apartment has been carefully maintained by its current owner. From the moment you step inside, you are welcomed by an open plan kitchen, lounge and dining area that has been designed with both style and practicality in mind. The kitchen is fully integrated with high-quality appliances, creating a seamless space that’s perfect for relaxed evenings at home or entertaining friends.

The true highlight, however, is the west-facing balcony. Spacious enough to dine or unwind, it offers uninterrupted water views and the perfect front-row seat to some of the most spectacular sunsets. This private outdoor space brings a sense of calm that is hard to find, inviting you to start your mornings with coffee in the sunshine and end your days with a glass of wine as the sky glows above the water.

The apartment also benefits from secure intercom entry, lift access and its own allocated parking space, giving peace of mind as well as convenience. With a long lease of 243 years remaining, it offers lasting security and makes for an excellent long-term investment.

With its own school, stunning riverside walks and a welcoming family feel, it’s a place where you can enjoy both peace and connection. The natural beauty of the island is complemented by its proximity to Dockside Outlet, just a short walk away, where you’ll find an array of shops, restaurants and bars, making day-to-day living both easy and enjoyable.

This apartment offers the best of both worlds: a serene retreat surrounded by water and greenery, and all the amenities of modern life within easy reach.

St Mary’s Island is part of the Chatham Maritime development area and offers exclusive waterside living with wonderful views across the River Medway. It is separated from mainland Chatham by three impressive basins, which are part of the area’s naval dockyard heritage. Inspired design is evident everywhere on the Island, where the environment, community and new homes have all been carefully planned to create a highly desirable location. The area boasts a new retail outlet centre, bars, cafe’s, restaurants, gym and cinema to compliment the harbour and vast array of riverside housing. Part of the original naval history has also been preserved through the Historic Dockyard Trust, which provides an insight into past traditions.

St Mary’s Island is evolving to become a sustainable community, with 20 acres of open space, retail and leisure facilities, whilst maintaining a village-like atmosphere, with fantastic transport links. The island has its own school and community centre, as well as opportunities for sailing, walking and socialising.
