The Complex

The Priestley Court warden-controlled complex is situated in a quiet cul-de-sac location at the end of Palmers Drive with access to Grays Town Centre and amenities.

The retirement accommodation is spread around some beautifully kept community gardens, where residents can take time during the day to sit on the various benches laid on by the management company, Sanctuary Hereward.

Residents are encouraged to join in various activities, including keep fit classes and bingo nights and a community spirit is very much encouraged.

The Warden’s office is located in one corner of the quadrant and ample parking is available in the centre of the development.

Ground Rent is payable at £5.83 per month and the service charge is £112.57 per month.  Once the apartment is sold, a sum equivalent to 10% of the profit made from the sale of the apartment is taken by Sanctuary Hereward.

For the above, residents regularly have double glazing updated (last done 2 years ago), communal hallways repainted (last done a year ago), 24-hour warden assistance with emergency pull cords in every room, full use of the community hall and access to all activities, full use of the community gardens and parking and all building maintenance, including the block buildings insurance policy.
