This development is subject to planning.

The proposed site for this Retirement Living property is in the centre of Hook, Hampshire. Named the ‘Best Place to Live in the UK' in Halifax's Quality of Life Survey from 2011 to 2015, the village received this accolade owing to the wellbeing of its inhabitants, its low crime rates and even its good weather.

The designs are for a fairly small development (with 19 one-bed and 18 two-bed apartments), reflecting the close-knit community feel of the village. At its heart will be a welcoming communal lounge, where homeowners can chit-chat or spend time socialising during events organised by the House Manager, who'll also oversee the development's day-to-day running. There will also be a beautifully landscaped garden in which homeowners can make the most of the town's renowned good weather.

Buying an apartment here at our Hook development will see you freed of some of the burdens of upkeep of a large family home, as all buildings maintenance is taken care of. Yet you'll also be able to maintain your independence. Plus, with security systems in place, you can feel confident that your apartment is safe and secure, whether you're at home or away.

The village offers a range of local amenities and the development site is conveniently located close to a supermarket. What's more, Hook has great transport links, what with easy access to the M3 and the local railway station making London Waterloo reachable in less than an hour. So, with onsite car parking and a scooter room, it'll be easy to travel around, both near and far.

Travelling at less than 3mph, there's plenty of time to enjoy the scenery and all cruises operate a fully licensed bar. You can book onto a cruise (with various options available) or even charter a trip!

If you have a special occasion on the horizon, or even just fancy a day of pampering, the Spa at the Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire is just 5 miles outside the village.
