A short walk to a bus stop, the town centre of Faversham is a mile away, with Canterbury and Sittingbourne in easy reach. Faversham is a charming, historic market town at the heart of rural Kent, with cafes, restaurants and retail, and with excellent transport links to London and beyond.
Built in 1987, the purpose-built Waterstone Place has a friendly atmosphere where you’ll feel right at home. It features 47 apartments made up of double and single bedrooms for single people and couples over 55. There are also two studio apartments adapted to suit those with disabilities.

At the heart of Waterstone Place is a communal lounge, used daily for social activities, with TV, stereo system and well-appointed kitchen area. It’s a great place to meet with friends to enjoy a tea or coffee.
