Two bedroom retirement apartment with the added bonus of A garage!
Miles & Barr are delighted to present this well-appointed two-bedroom first-floor retirement apartment, situated in the sought-after Bierce Court, Birchington.
Ideally located just a short distance from Birchington’s main shopping parade and train station, the property also benefits from excellent access to major bus and road routes connecting Thanet and beyond.
Bierce Court is a purpose-built retirement development, set within beautifully maintained grounds and offering a range of resident facilities including southerly facing communal gardens, a residents' car park, lift access to all floors, and an on-site house manager. The internal communal areas are equally well presented and maintained to a high standard.
The apartment itself comprises two double bedrooms, with the principal bedroom benefiting from a dedicated dressing room. The spacious 18ft lounge/diner opens onto a private balcony, providing an ideal space for relaxation. A separate fitted kitchen, modern shower room with WC, and an additional guest WC complete the internal accommodation.
A rare and valuable feature of this property is the inclusion of a private garage.
Offered with no onward chain, and with keys available for immediate viewing, early inspection is highly recommended.

Location Summary:
Birchington was once considered ‘the epitome of modest’. That statement may still be considered. Understated opulence: A wealth of late Victorian and Edwardian properties stand alongside flint or cliff-top cottages - Birchington really does have something for everyone. An array of bakers, an ice cream parlour and vintage shops make Birchington the perfect village location to base yourself if you still need to commute to the City. Located just minutes from the A299 with a journey of approximately 75 minutes to the O2 Arena and Greenwich. Of course, if you’d like a stress-free journey then just take the train from Birchington straight through to London Victoria. Travel in the other direction and just three stops along you’ll be able to enjoy the seaside towns of Margate, Broadstairs and Ramsgate. There are a number of schools within the village from nursery through to Secondary education and a doctor’s surgery. Those who enjoy sport will find a magnificent 18-hole golf club, windsurfing along Minnis Bay, and sailing enthusiasts can take advantage of the Minnis Bay Sailing Club, which offers activities for all levels (not forgetting the atmospheric Minnis Bar & Restaurant), endless miles of promenade for serious runners, gentle beach-top walks or just follow the Viking Trail bike rides. A popular residential area for young families, London commuters and second home purchasers.
