How a new Churchill apartment could help reduce your costs:
We offer some of the lowest service charges in the retirement sector which is why many of our Residents are pleasantly surprised to find that the service charges work out lower than what they were paying, in comparable costs, on their previous home.
This is because the service charge combines a wide range of services and property-related expenses into a combined cost. Residents find they benefit from a more manageable and easier-to-budget lifestyle, without having to worry about unexpected maintenance bills.
We always aim to keep the service charge cost as low as possible, and we provide a full budget breakdown for all our Residents, consulting with them on this every 6 months.
The service charge covers:
The cost of your dedicated Lodge Manager
Security systems
24-hour Careline call monitoring system
External maintenance of the building and grounds
Heating & lighting of communal areas
Provision of furnishings in communal areas
Building insurance
Who is responsible for the management of the Lodge?
All developments are managed by Churchill Estates Management Limited, our own property management company, so you can be confident in the expertise of our team operating under the Churchill Group.
No exit fees, meaning no unexpected costs!
In 2025 we announced that Residents will no longer pay any exit fees when selling or subletting their apartments, making the process far more straightforward and hassle-free. Whilst many retirement housing providers still apply fees, we have set a new standard by abolishing them entirely - helping to provide greater peace of mind and making life simpler both for Residents and their families!
Calculating your savings...
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.
Faversham is a historic market town in Kent, dating back to Roman times, with a high street of well-known brands and independent shops and eateries. Handsome old buildings, a lively market, and good rail links to London give it real appeal, making it a rewarding place to enjoy retirement.
Beyond the town, Faversham Creek winds out toward the Swale and the north Kent marshes, with level waterside walks and abundant birdlife. Canterbury, Whitstable, and the coast are a short drive or train ride away for wider days out.
Local highlights
Faversham's historic Market Place, beneath the 16th-century Guildhall, hosts a traditional market several days a week, with fresh produce, plants, crafts, and household goods. Level paving and handsome surrounding streets make it a comfortable place to potter, shop, and pause for a coffee.
Shepherd Neame, Britain's oldest brewer, has been based in Faversham since 1698. Guided tours explore the brewing process and the town's long ale-making heritage, ending with tastings, while the visitor centre and shop make for a sociable, gently paced outing.
A gentle walk from the centre follows Faversham Creek out among historic warehouses, boatyards, and moored sailing barges. Level paths, open views, and waterside pubs make it an easy way to enjoy the town's maritime and industrial past at a relaxed pace.
The Chart Gunpowder Mills, the oldest of their kind in the country, sit within a short walk of the centre, a reminder of Faversham's explosives-making history. A quiet green setting and level paths make this an easy, interesting stop on a gentle stroll.
What our Residents say
Don't just take it from us
“Churchill’s Sales Executive Lorraine was brilliant throughout the process and let me take my time with no pressure. I used the Home Exchange service to smooth things along, and I was one of the first to move in as soon as the new apartments were ready.”
“The service charge works out really well, it makes your pension go further. More days out, maybe more holidays - our bills are so much less!”
