Bright & airy two bedroom retirement apartment in the heart of birchington!

Miles & Barr are extremely pleased to be offering this well presented two bedroom top floor retirement apartment located within the ever popular Bierce Court development, Birchington. Ideally situated within close proximity of Birchington’s main shopping parade, train station and doctors surgery, the seafront and all other major amenities are also close at hand. Bierce Court itself is an extremely well maintained retirement block for those aged 55 years and above. There is an on-site house manager, a communal car park, an outdoor drying area and meticulously kept communal gardens.

This apartment is situated on the top floor and is accessed via a lift and once inside, you will find two double bedrooms (the master with its own walk in wardrobe/dressing area), an 18ft lounge diner with your own private balcony, a modern fitted kitchen and shower room and a further separate WC. It’s also worth noting that there are also distant sea views looking towards Minnis Bay. In our opinion this property has been well looked after by the current owner and as there is currently no onward chain, an early internal viewing is essential to fully appreciate all that is on offer!

Identification Checks

Should a purchaser(s) have an offer accepted on a property marketed by Miles & Barr, they will need to undertake an identification check. This is done to meet our obligation under Anti Money Laundering Regulations (aml) and is a legal requirement. We use a specialist third party service to verify your identity. The cost of these checks is £60 inc. VAT per purchase, which is paid in advance, when an offer is agreed and prior to a sales memorandum being issued. This charge is non-refundable under any circumstances.

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.
