22 Aug Park Home Living for the Over 55s
What makes a home? Is it the bricks and mortar? Is it the new double glazing you’ve had installed? Is it the place in which you store all of your stuff? There is no right or wrong answer to this question and everyone has their own opinion, but one theme which will occur again and again is that a home is where we feel our best – a place that is ours, where we are happy, comfortable and in control.
Moving house is a big decision and one that shouldn’t be taken lightly, but if you are over 55 and are thinking of your next home move – park home living should be high on your list to research.
Not ‘Just a Caravan’
Gone are the days of draughty caravan homes wobbling in the wind; modern park homes are built to exceptional residential specifications making them energy efficient with thick, well-insulated and sound-proofed walls, ventilation, double glazing and low energy heating systems.
Modern Living
Folding couches and hidden beds are a thing of the past. Park homes are designed to cater for modern living – benefiting from mains services and sewerage, phone lines and high-speed internet. Your park home can be designed and built to your specification, so if you would like full home automation controlled from an iPad, you can have it. In fact many new technologies and modern conveniences are easier to install into a park home than a traditional bricks and mortar building.
Do What You Love
Having spent a lifetime paying a mortgage, downsizing to the more efficient living space of a park home will allow you to release the equity in your bricks and mortar to do the things you love. Whether it’s golfing or travelling – the world is your oyster.
Community Life
Park homes are built on residential parks which mean you’ll be surrounded by like-minded people at similar times of their lives and before you know it you’ll have a strong circle of friends with which to socialise. With private gardens and communal park areas you can be as social as you want.
(Wo)Man’s best Friend
At Warfield Park you can enjoy the parkland areas with your pet. Maybe you’ve always wanted a dog but your current living situation makes that difficult. Many of our residents have pets live with them and our location is perfect for those wishing to venture out on dog walks, the perfect way to meet new people.
If you are considering moving to a park home you should definitely get in touch. We are based just outside Bracknell in Berkshire, close enough to benefit from the town centre but far enough to be considered an ‘escape to the country’.
