Retirement specialist Beechcroft starts work on the new apartments at Fonthill Place, Reigate

“Our ground workers started work on site in August and construction work is progressing well,” comments Andy Swallow, Beechcroft's Site Manager at Fonthill Place.  “We expect to be in a position to launch the new show home in early 2025.”

Designed for the over 55s and set within the secluded, walled gardens of the period property, the 18 two-bedroom apartments, along with a one-bedroom apartment, will feature generously proportioned, light filled living space and high-quality fixtures and fittings. Kitchens are fitted with bespoke cabinets and a full range of top brand, energy-efficient appliances, bathrooms include vanity units and fitted mirrors, bedrooms come complete with fitted wardrobes and flooring, including carpeting, is included throughout. Each apartment will have its own balcony, terrace or private garden, along with allocated parking and charging points for electric cars.

“With the sales launch scheduled to take place in early 2025, we already registering interest in the new apartments which have been designed to complement the original building,” comments Angela South, Beechcroft’s Sales & Marketing Director. “This is a development that has much to recommend it, including an excellent location within easy reach of Reigate town centre, beautifully landscaped, fully maintained communal gardens and an estate management service. Of course, pets are welcome as they are at all Beechcroft developments”

“Energy efficiency is increasingly important today, both in financial and environmental terms, and the apartments at Fonthill Place have high levels of insulation, efficient heating systems including air source heat pumps and underfloor heating, energy-efficient appliances and lighting. In addition, new Beechcroft homes feature our Healthihouse™ specification, with technology designed to create a healthier living environment.”

“One underappreciated benefit of moving to an over 55s development such as Fonthill Place is the sense of community that develops as home buyers move in. Homeowners can maintain their independence and privacy but are able to take advantage of the fact that living alongside like-minded neighbours means having the chance of a whole new social life on hand.  The communal lounge at Fonthill Place makes it easy to enjoy coffee and a chat or social occasions with neighbours and there’s also a luxurious guest suite that can be booked for visiting family and friends.”
