Enjoy Easy Living in Quedgeley

DOWNSIZE your home and upsize your lifestyle with a move to Queen Anne Court in Quedgeley, where everything you need is on the doorstep and worrying about repairs and maintenance will be a thing of the past.

With a choice of brand new, two-bedroom properties available to buy, the Aspen Retirement Living development is the ideal place for those who want to downsize without compromise.

It’s a great location for those in later years, as everything home owners need is conveniently located close-by, including a medical centre, dentists’ surgery, a large Tesco supermarket and a retail park. Plus the area is relatively flat, so easy to get around for those with mobility problems.

Situated off Bristol Road, Queen Anne Court is on a regular bus route to and from Gloucester city centre and is also just 10 miles from Stroud and some pretty Cotswold villages for days out.

Liz Herring, sales and marketing manager for Aspen Retirement Living said: “Living so close to everything means that people can access things independently and do not need to rely on relatives to take them out and about. Many of our customers have come from surrounding villages in semi rural locations, often isolated and awkward for getting around; they’ve decided that moving to a flatter, more central location is now the sensible thing to do.”

Among those who love the convenience are Tony and Jean Lowe. Tony commented: “Queen Anne Court is very central and has good transport links. There are lots of local amenities including doctors’ and dentists’ surgeries and shops within walking distance. You don’t need to use a car if you live here.”

For neighbour Peter Hobby, whose wife Shirley has Parkinson’s, it’s the extra support when they need it, help with cleaning and no worries about repairs and maintenance that make Queen Anne Court the perfect place to be. “There’s someone on call 24-hours a day and I can get out a bit more now because we have the reassurance of friendly on-site support staff,” said Peter.

The Aspen apartments and bungalows at Queen Anne Court are spacious, stylish and well equipped. Kitchens include an electric eye-level oven, hob, fridge-freezer and washer dryer, while bathrooms include a walk-in shower and a bath.

There’s a restaurant where home owners can dine if they wish, a residents’ lounge, conservatory, beautifully maintained landscaped gardens and a guest suite for when family come to stay.

Home owners can choose to keep themselves to themselves or seek out the company of like-minded individuals at coffee mornings, scrabble clubs and other social activities.

“We have been able to make new friends with our new neighbours. It’s really great – like having our own social club,” Peter added.

Current availability at Queen Anne Court includes just one remaining two-bedroom bungalow and a choice of two-bedroom apartments, priced from £184,500.
