Chaplin Drive

Type of property

Chaplin Drive is a modern detached house where people are supported to live independent and fulfilled lives. The house has four bedrooms, one is a staff sleep-in room and another is on the ground floor with its own shower room. There are two further bedrooms upstairs with a shared bathroom. There’s also a kitchen-diner which opens out onto a spacious lounge. Outside there’s a small garden with a patio area and a shed for storage. When you choose supported living, you’re choosing to live independently, safe and secure behind your own front door. There’s peace of mind in knowing the Lifeways team is on-hand, providing tailored support that helps people to lead more fulfilling lives, surrounded by like-minded people.

Valued in your community

Life at Chaplin Drive is suitable for people with learning disabilities or autism. It is currently home to two ladies, one in her forties and one in her seventies. The atmosphere is very calm, quiet and relaxed in the house. The ladies enjoy going out, socialising with family and friends, trips into the nearby villages and towns, gardening, lunches out and trips to the coast. The service would be ideal for another lady who is calm and would benefit from a quiet and relaxed home. Whoever moves in will be supported to live a happy life and achieve their goals, no matter how big or small.

Living at this service

Chaplin Drive is located a short walk from Headcorn village, which has shops, cafes, pubs, a post office, hairdressers and a church. Headcorn is an historic village in the heart of the Low Weald, about eight miles from Maidstone. Maidstone has plenty of shops, places to eat and things to see – there’s a museum, Leeds Castle and Kent Owl Academy. If you love being outdoors there are some beautiful parks to explore, including Mote Park and Vinters Valley Nature Reserve.
