According to recent statistics, properties at St George’s Park in Ditchling, East Sussex have proved to be a good investment for the over 60s.
With an average uplift in re-sale value of 6.5% over the last couple of years, retirees concerned about making the right move financially should be confident properties at St George’s Park will retain their value.
Philip Smith, Sales Director at St George’s Park comments: “With a range of social and leisure facilities available plus a 24 hour concierge, this development continues to prove popular with the over 60s. Future phases of the development will see additional facilities including a swimming pool and bowling green which are bound to add to the attraction of this environment.”
Philip continues: “The development offers a lot more than an attractive setting and quality apartments, it provides a sense of community for the over 60s which is another reason the development has continued to prove popular. Residents can enjoy an active social life by getting involved with the Resident’s Association, who organise table tennis, snooker, line dancing, short tennis, croquet and short mat bowls to name a few! It is a fantastic lifestyle here.”
Residents can also use the gymnasium, restaurant, café bar, hairdressers, convenience shop, games room and library that are located in the spacious and well used community centre, Maes Court. This centre also includes a multi-purpose function room and a treatment room that provides excellent amenities for visiting therapists.
The original concert hall, with its ornate ceiling, is also available to residents and makes an ideal place for special occasions, communal gatherings and other events including plays, guest speakers, film nights or concerts. For residents that prefer the outdoors, there is a well-stocked lake for fishing, a footpath network across the 250 acres of grounds, woodland and lakes, and even an allotment club.
The development is also superbly located for the beautiful countryside of the South Downs, a mix of rural villages and towns including Brighton, which all have numerous places to explore, shop and restaurants to try. There is also horse racing at both Brighton and Lingfield racecourses, and further afield Goodwood, which is also a venue for motor racing and other internationally acclaimed events.
