Case Studies

For Anne Gillett, a move from a house in Shirley into a one-bedroom retirement apartment in the same town, meant that she had more time for her one true love – walking!
City man returns from brief encounter with country life
Retiring to the country may sound like every city dweller’s dream, but it can spell disappointment if you are not used to a slow pace of life and daily repetition.
Frankie Green, Harrow – ‘the thespian’ (active retirement)
While many think of the seaside or countryside as the ideal retirement location there are some for whom the bright lights beckon – one of them is 63-year-old widow Frankie Green. She moved recently to England from Los Angeles, and her passion for the bright lights and theatreland steered her to an apartment at a Pegasus development in Harrow, on London’s outskirts.
Gardens without the graft at Pegasus Court
The majority of people in this country aspire to own a little patch of England – a garden to nurture and spend sunny days in with family and friends. In 2002 the UK market for gardening products grew to a staggering £4.5 billion (source Euromonitor International), proving that we are indeed a nation of gardening enthusiasts. But what happens when heavy duty gardening chores become a weighty responsibility for health or age reasons?
Jacqueline enjoys the best of both worlds (travelling)
With the current trend of people retiring younger and having an increasingly active lifestyle , the demand for lock-up-and-leave style properties is rising. It was this aspect of Pegasus Court in Shirley, which attracted Jacqueline Hall to her one-bedroom retirement apartment.
Mollie paints a rosy picture of retirement (active retirement)
Not only do retirement properties offer comfortable living and less maintenance, but the chance to pursue your dreams and hobbies. At least this is what Mollie Dearle found when she moved into Pegasus Court in Union Road, Shirley.
Stylish, contemporary retirement apartment is designed online (silver surfing)
Soft rose prints in pinks and silver line the dining room walls. A glass table sits very grandly on deep rug in rich pinks and vibrant reds. White leather and metal chairs surround the table, while polished silverware and glass are displayed elegantly in silver side-cabinets. A canvas, painted in textured pinks, whites and silvers captures the eye and the funky silver mirror reflects the sunlight around the room.
We do like to be beside the seaside (seaside living)
If you’ve always dreamt of retiring to the seaside but thought for guaranteed sunshine you needed to move to a villa in Spain – then now’s the time for a rethink. With problems in the Spanish property market, a retirement apartment in a British resort has never been a more appealing option.
