The long cold winter months can be a time of real worry for older people, particularly for those who live alone, and the people that care for them. Not only is trying to keep their home warm a problem for many but theres also the worry of being cut off from family and friends by winter weather conditions. Then theres the concern of slips and falls on icy surfaces which can make getting out to the shops seem like mission impossible.
However, there is a way that could make next winter worry free. Designed specifically for discerning, mature purchasers aged 55 and over, a new apartment at Adlington House in Rhos-on-Sea offers a fresh alternative to downsizing into a conventional retirement complex.
Not only will home owners benefit from luxurious, purpose-built 1, 2 or 3 bedroom apartments but they will have access to a range of facilities such as fitness suites, lounges and an on site bistro without having to venture out into the cold. There will also be a range of activities on offer helping to create a true sense of community, in which home owners may participate as much - or as little - as they choose. And if people need care as they get older it is available in the form of 24-hour on site care packages from registered charity MHA (Methodist Homes for the Aged).
And thanks to excellent insulation and the latest energy saving devices, the homes at Adlington House will be up to four times more energy efficient than a traditional second hand home helping to keep home owners snug and warm whatever the weather. Not only are residents likely to make big savings on their energy bills, they will also be doing their bit to help the environment.
Sales and Marketing Manager, Claire Reede says:
Winter can be a time of worry, loneliness and isolation for many older people but our concept offers a solution to these issues without taking away the independence which is just so important to them. And the fact that care will be available in the privacy and comfort of their own home means that theres less chance they will have to move again in the future if their circumstances change.
Lying within walking distance of the seafront and local shops, Adlingtons development in Rhos-on-Sea is well placed to take advantage of the broad range of sporting and social clubs in the area, from golf to sailing.
The collection of apartments, most of which enjoy patios or balconies with sea views, is almost ready for people to see, with a Show Suite due in the spring. Off-plan prices on the first release start at £140,000. For further information or to register your interest, call 01260 288900.
Future Adlington developments are planned in premium locations including Romiley near Stockport; Wolstanton near Newcastle-under-Lyme; Sandbach, Congleton and Northwich in Cheshire; Buxton in Derbyshire; Stone in Staffordshire and Beaumaris in Anglesey - visit www.adlington.co.uk for further details.
