This one-bedroom retirement apartment in Lakeside Retirement Village, Upper Weald, Ashford, Kent offers a convenient location close to transport links and several schools. The apartment itself is presented in a reasonably maintained and clean condition. Images show a neutral decor, a functional kitchen and bathroom, and a modest living space with a mix of natural and artificial light. The building is part of a retirement village, indicating a potentially active and supportive community, but with limited immediate access to amenities. The absence of any private garden needs highlighting for potential buyers who would like private outdoor space. While the price of £165,000 appears relatively competitive within the retirement village and immediate area, the significant variation in pricing of surrounding areas raises a question on whether the price reflects the wider local housing market. Further investigation into the specific inclusions of the retirement village (e.g., communal facilities) and the detailed condition of the property would be necessary for a more informed assessment. Overall, this apartment may appeal to those seeking a manageable, low-maintenance living space within a retirement community, but those seeking a larger space, private outdoor area, or more immediate access to shops and town amenities should bear in mind the property’s limitations.

Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
