Retirees Opt For Town Centre Living

A recent trend has seen an increase in retirees opting to move into town centre homes as opposed to the more traditional movement pattern of retired downsizers to coastal and overseas property.

Multi-award winning UK house builder, Higgins Homes specialises in town centre homes and has seen a recent increase in this trend. One example is at The Old Hospital, an attractive historic conversion development in Maidstone, Kent, where a number of the new homes have been purchased by retired buyers attracted to the combination of classical Period architecture, contemporary living, reduced living costs and a fabulous town centre location.
