ABPM now representing The Villages Group – a new concept for active over 50’s living in France
AB Property Marketing, the UK based leading property PR agency, is pleased to announce the representation of The Villages Group – a new concept for active over 50’s living in France.
Brought to the market by established marketers/developers Property Direct France, the concept for The Villages Group has taken four years of research and development to create the first active living resorts in France dedicated to the over 50’s. Designed for living, the Villages situated near existing French communities in Bordeaux / Perigord, Canal du Midi and Provence offer one-level eco-friendly homes set within outstanding natural environments with full on-site amenities.
Danny Silver, MD of The Villages Group, explains,
“The Villages Group draws inspiration from the established +50 active living resorts which have become so popular in the US and Australia. Accommodating only residents of 50 years and above, The Villages are geared up for active living with purposefully no medical or nursing facilities on-site. All Villages are English speaking and bring together like-minded people looking to enjoy the wonderful French way of life.”
Sales begin in mid-2012 with houses from €165,000 in three stunning locations across southern France, owners of homes at The Villages are able to fully enjoy all on-site amenities including tennis courts, gymnasium, indoor and outdoor swimming pools and quality entertainment. Uniquely residents do not only own the land and freehold title of the property but also a full equal shareholding of the entire Village.
Charlotte Ashton, Director of AB Property Marketing, comments,
“Having worked with Mr Silver and the Property Direct France team before we are very excited to be promoting this new concept. France remains one of the most sought after second home and indeed relocation destinations in the world with more and more people attracted to the relaxed pace of life, charming natural landscapes and lower cost of living.
“Dedicated communities for over 50’s have been well established in other western nations and it is exciting to be able to introduce this to France.”
