The Red House development in Ripon offers upsides for downsizers
The elegant, quality homes at the distinctive Red House retirement village, being created by award- winning developer Enterprise Retirement Living in Ripon, are proving very popular with downsizers, with several off-plan reservations already secured. Every facet of the design and specification has been thoroughly planned for owners' needs, with features such as level thresholds, wider door frames, different paint colours to door and architrave for those with impaired sight, as well as future stairlift provision in the two-storey properties. Most of these downsizers are selling much larger homes and will also find they have not had to compromise on space and lifestyle in their brand new homes at The Red House.
Hattie Bacon, Head of Sales,
Marketing and Operations at Enterprise Retirement Living, comments: “We are very particular about the finishes and we try to get the right balance between a contemporary and a practical specification. At the beginning of the scheme I sit down with the interior designer and each aspect of the owner's comfort and use is carefully considered.We have also held focus groups with owners at Boughton Hall our retirement village in Chester to get their input on their ideal specification. Our research also shows that downsizers look in particular for a property with low maintenance and the availability of 24-hour support.
“Our specifications at The Red House make day-to-day living more straightforward and we look at 'future proofing' the properties.
In the kitchen, we include washing machines and dishwashers with quick programmes and frost-free fridge/freezers, as well as more drawer base units. The ensuites come with tiledWedi trays, suitable for wheelchairs, with controls outside the shower so that owners can get the right temperature before entering. The walls are also robust enough for aids to be added if required in the future. It's great to see a growing number of retirees finding the ideal property at our retirement villages which allow them to downsize with ease.”
The exterior has also benefited from thoughtful planning, resulting in a secure fob-activated gated community with landscaped gardens, walkways and seating areas around the grounds, and raised garden beds for the
owners' use. All the communal areas, inside and out, accommodate tall, short and less mobile individuals.
