This one-bedroom, first-floor assisted living apartment sits within Richmond Villages Aston‑on‑Trent — a well-equipped retirement community set in rural Derbyshire. The apartment offers a lounge with kitchenette, double bedroom with en‑suite shower, and a village‑facing outlook over landscaped communal gardens. Allocated off‑street parking and on‑site gardeners reduce maintenance for residents.
The village focuses on wellbeing: 24/7 colleagues, an on‑site wellness spa with hydrotherapy pool, sauna and gym, a restaurant, hair and beauty salon, and organised social activities. Transport is available via on‑site drivers and vehicles, helping with local trips and appointments. Broadband and mobile signal are average; the area is very affluent with low crime and easy access to Derby and local healthcare.
Financially, this is offered as Shared Ownership — a 50% share is available for £87,500 (full price £175,000) and includes a “Move for Free” incentive worth £8,750. The property is leasehold with 125 years remaining. A monthly service charge covers village upkeep and services. A transfer fee applies on resale (6% year one, 8% year two, 10% thereafter). Assisted Living purchasers must also pay for a Lifestyle or Lifestyle Flex package that covers utilities and some services; these are ongoing costs.
This apartment suits someone seeking low‑maintenance, community‑led retirement living with strong onsite care and leisure facilities. It benefits owners wanting social activities and convenience, but buyers should factor in service charges, lifestyle package fees and resale transfer costs into long‑term affordability.
