A top floor flat enjoying a position with delightful views over the roof tops of old Gillingham, the church and river is this lovely apartment, offered for sale with no onward chain and designed especially for those over 55 years and in their leisure years. The apartment forms part of the Barnaby Mill complex - managed by Churchill Estate Management and boasts a convenient location - just off the main high street with easy access to supermarkets, chemists, doctor and dentist surgeries as well as the mainline train station, which serves London Waterloo and the West Country. The apartment has recently been updated with stylish contemporary soft closing kitchen units and laminate work surfaces, the carpets have been replaced and a redecoration throughout. The heating has also been upgraded with modern economical and individually controlled electric radiators from Rointe. The apartment provides independent living with the added bonus of a Development Manager, who works from 8.30am to 2pm - Monday to Friday - and emergency pull cord in the bathroom plus sitings for further cords, if required. The property itself benefits from uPVC double glazing and has use of a laundry room, guest suite which may be booked for a nominal charge, a residents lounge where many social events are hosted and beautifully kept communal gardens that border the river. In addition to being a full time home this great apartment could also be used as a lock up and leave UK base. A viewing is strongly recommended to really appreciate the size of the apartment, the grounds as well as the location.
