Hall storage, a utility room and shower room complete the downstairs.

Upstairs the master suite comprises a bedroom, dressing room, en-suite bathroom and balcony with view over the garden to the church spire. There are also two further bedrooms, a family bathroom, linen cupboard and access to the loft.

The landscaped grounds are superb, with the option for residents to manage an allotment should they wish.

Each property at Orchard Yard offers an extra wide car barn with a storage pod and electricity, within their allocated parking space.

Orchard Yard is a managed estate for the over 55s, with an alarm service and an element of domestic support provided. Grounds and exterior maintenance are taken care of as part of the service, and an estate manager visits daily. Should it become desirable at a later date, space for a two-person lift has been built into the design.

The lovely village of Wingham is literally on the doorstep with a range of shops, restaurants and pubs. The beaches of the Kent coast, including Whitstable with its Oyster Festival are close at hand, and Europe is a short hop away via the nearby ports. The historic city of Canterbury is a short drive away, and London is less than an hour by train.

Developed by Cognatum, this property is specifically targeted at over 55's only, fantastic for independent living, but with the added bonus of help being available when needed, all within a community of likeminded people. Paid within the service charge, there is some allocated time each week to assist you with tasks, such as cleaning.

On the site is a small gym area within a cosy community clubhouse which is also ideal for meeting friends and using the facilities. This area also has a generous size patio area with plenty of seats and umbrellas to enjoy BBQ's with friends or simply a morning coffee.

The gardens at Orchard Yard are superb, some properties have their own small garden and beyond the communal gardens are maintained by the estate manager. There is a greenhouse, allotment for each resident, natural garden areas and benches to enjoy different areas of the complex.
