Retirement properties in Tonbridge
We are delighted to announce that we have acquired a brand new site for a proposed collection of retirement apartments, nestled in the heart of Tonbridge in Kent. Surrounded by idyllic, rolling countryside, with the river Medway meandering through its heart, and housing over 150 listed buildings; it is no wonder that Tonbridge is widely considered an attractive town.
Our new site is ideally located for the extensive shopping and leisure activities that Tonbridge has to offer.
Join us for our launch event on Wednesday 5th March at Mercure Tunbridge Wells Hotel. This is a great opportunity to find out more about the lifestyle and services on offer. You will be able to view the plans and have the opportunity TO RESERVE an apartment of your choice. Call to register your interest!
Prior to our launch event we will be carrying out home visits, giving you the opportunity to be one of the first to view the plans. CALL NOW TO REQUEST A HOME VISIT.

How a new Churchill apartment could help reduce your costs:
Now is the time to take stock and think about how much time and money you have spent over the past year on house maintenance. If the answer is far too much, then a lifestyle with fewer maintenance worries and a service charge that’s easy to budget for could be the answer to saving money and enjoying more of your time on the things you love.
There are many misconceptions about service charges and many of our Owners are pleasantly surprised that the service charges for their apartment frequently work out less than what they were paying in comparable costs on their previous property.
Our Service Charge typically covers the cost of providing a Lodge Manager, security systems and call monitoring, external maintenance of the building and grounds, building insurance, heating, lighting and provision of all of the furnishings for the Owners’ Lounge and communal areas – all essential ingredients of the independent lifestyle our developments provide.
We always aim to keep the service charge cost as low as possible, and we provide a full budget breakdown for all our Owners to consider, consulting with them on this every 6 months.
“Living in a Churchill Apartment is absolutely marvellous. The whole building is so nice and warm all the time that we’ve hardly had to use the heating inside our apartment. When we do turn it up a notch or two it’s nice to know we don’t have to worry about the cost or the environmental impact, as it’s all so energy efficient and covered within our annual service charge.”
John and Doreen Pitt, Lewis Carroll Lodge, Cheltenham
We appreciate everyone’s household costs will differ which is why we encourage Customers to complete a ‘Savings Calculator’ with one of our Sales Executives. This calculator is designed to offer a comprehensive understanding of the value in our easy to budget Service Charge.
