Perfect for those seeking a peaceful, low-maintenance lifestyle in later years, this thoughtfully designed home is ideal for independent individuals or couples over 60 looking for comfort, community, and convenience all in one place.

Set within a purpose-built retirement development, this home is designed with comfort, security and ease of use in mind. A secure communal entrance with both stairs and a lift provides easy access to the first floor. Upon entry to the flat, a private hallway welcomes you in, complete with a built-in storage cupboard. The living room is light-filled and neatly proportioned, creating a cosy space to relax or entertain visiting family or friends. The kitchen is fitted with practical storage and workspace, providing everything needed for day-to-day cooking. It’s compact but functional, with easy access layout to suit changing mobility needs.

There are two well-proportioned bedrooms offering flexibility to use the second room as a guest room, hobby space, or home office. The bathroom is equipped with a walk in shower, WC and wash hand basin, laid out with simplicity and practicality in mind.

Emergency pull cords are installed throughout the property for added reassurance, and the presence of an estate manager adds an extra layer of safety and support.

A key highlight is the communal lounge, a friendly space where residents gather for tea, conversation, and regular activities, helping to nurture a sense of belonging and social connection. There's also a courtyard-style communal garden, offering a pleasant spot to enjoy some fresh air without the maintenance responsibilities of a private garden.

For visiting friends or family, we understand a guest suite is available to book in advance, offering a thoughtful solution for overnight stays. Offered with no onward chain, the property is ready for immediate occupation, making it an ideal move-in ready solution for those wishing to downsize or simplify.

Pilots Place is ideally located within easy reach of Gravesend town centre, where a wide range of shops, cafés, and restaurants can be found. The mainline station provides high-speed services to Stratford in 17 minutes and St Pancras in just 22 minutes, making London visits simple and stress-free. For more extensive shopping or leisure, Bluewater shopping centre is just a short drive away, and Ebbsfleet International station is also close by for wider travel. Daily errands are easy to manage with local amenities nearby, and excellent road links via the A2, M2, and M25 make visiting family or heading out for the day straightforward. The surrounding area offers the perfect balance of town convenience and transport connectivity, supporting a relaxed yet active lifestyle well suited to the over-60s.
