First residents move into exclusive over 55s development in Bolton

The first residents have moved into their homes at a bespoke mature living development within the grounds of Bolton’s Last Drop Village Hotel.

Jones Homes is currently building 41 properties at Sanctuary Last Drop Village, in Bromley Cross, which will eventually form part of a wider 98-home neighbourhood.

The development is one of the first in the UK to feature the Sanctuary model of active and independent living for the over 55s which has been successfully pioneered by Jones Homes in Florida.

The concept is based around providing high-specification and low-maintenance homes in exclusive gated communities with access to a wide range of on-site leisure facilities, offering both security and independence for active mature adults.

Work on a selection of one-bedroom apartments, as well as three and four-bedroom cottages and townhouses, is currently taking shape at Last Drop Village. The first 12 homes have been built and the remaining 29 are set to be completed by the end of the year.

Simon Whalley, Sales Director for Jones Homes North West, said: “Construction work is progressing well at Sanctuary Last Drop Village and we are pleased to have now welcomed the first residents into their new homes.

“These properties have been designed specifically to serve the growing demographic of over-55s who want to maintain active and independent lifestyles while enjoying the additional convenience, security and sense of community that living in a gated development brings.

“Residents will have access to the wide range of on-site facilities at Last Drop Village Hotel and Spa, which includes a restaurant, pub, swimming pool, gym, spa and shops. They will also benefit from having the Sanctuary team on hand to take care of everyday maintenance tasks like window cleaning and gardening, enabling them to maximise their spare time.”

There is currently a selection of one-bedroom apartments available at Last Drop Village from £164,950. There is also a selection of two, three and four-bedroom properties available to buy from £291,950.
