Retirement living is thriving in Kent, according to housebuilder Churchill Living, so much so that purchasers seeking the ideal retirement property in Orpington are being urged to visit its popular Atkins Lodge development where there are just a few apartments now remaining.
The development has proved a popular choice with local retirees thanks to its ideal location and lively community. What’s more, with a range of services available to help you make the move, retiring to Atkins Lodge couldn’t be easier as Anne Scherrer, Regional Marketing Manager at Churchill Living, explains:
“Atkins Lodge has proved incredibly popular with over 60s and the community here is a real mix of people who already lived locally and wanted to leave their larger properties, and those who have relocated to be nearer family and friends.
“There’s a great community atmosphere at the Lodge and it offers all the support and facilities needed for a worry-free retirement. With quiz afternoons, weekly coffee mornings and film clubs amongst just some of the social events that take place, it’s the perfect choice for anyone looking for a safe, secure, low maintenance property to downsize to, with plenty to enjoy, in a central location.

With just a handful of apartments now remaining, potential buyers will have to act quickly to make the most of the lifestyle on offer at Atkins Lodge.”
