Set within the prestigious St Ives Place, part of the highly respected Care South group, these exceptional 3 bedroom retirement cottages offer an enviable lifestyle designed for those who value independence, security and refined surroundings.
Tucked away on the edge of Ashley Heath, moments from the market town of Ringwood, St Ives Place enjoys a peaceful woodland setting while remaining superbly connected to local amenities. The development is surrounded by beautifully landscaped gardens and mature trees, creating a private and tranquil environment that feels both exclusive and reassuringly established.
Comprising just 14 elegant apartments and four charming cottages, this boutique retirement community has been thoughtfully designed for discerning buyers seeking to enjoy their retirement years without compromise. Each residence benefits from its own private entrance, offering complete autonomy and the comfort of true independent living. At the same time, residents have the invaluable reassurance of professional support available on site 24 hours a day, should it ever be required.
The ethos at St Ives Place is centred around choice, dignity and lifestyle. Residents can enjoy the privacy of their own home, yet take full advantage of the superb shared facilities that foster a genuine sense of community. A welcoming residents lounge and conservatory provide the perfect setting for socialising, while the on-site bistro offers an ideal venue for relaxed lunches, coffee with friends or entertaining visiting family. A guest suite, landscaped communal gardens and practical features such as buggy-charging areas further enhance day-to-day convenience.
Uniquely, St Ives Place sits alongside the impressive St Ives Country House Care home, also operated by Care South. This close-care model provides a seamless pathway of support, offering peace of mind that should care needs evolve in the future, assistance is immediately accessible within the same trusted environment. For many purchasers, this gentle balance between independence and reassurance is what truly sets the development apart.
The atmosphere is one of quiet luxury and understated exclusivity - a village-style setting where neighbours know one another, yet privacy is always respected. Regular social activities and optional minibus trips into Ringwood add to the vibrant yet relaxed lifestyle on offer.
For the discerning buyer seeking a secure, beautifully maintained and thoughtfully managed environment - one that combines elegance, community and long-term peace of mind - St Ives Place represents a rare and compelling opportunity. It is more than simply a home; it is a carefully curated way of life.
