A prestigious retirement village in Hampshire for leading retirement communities’ operator, Inspired Villages

Highwood has completed the first phase of a prestigious retirement village in Ampfield, on the north western edge of Chandlers Ford in Hampshire, for award-winning retirement communities’ operator, Inspired Villages. 

Phase One has seen 57 new homes constructed in the village centre and in a separate residential block on the site. When complete, this state-of-the-art development will offer 149 luxury apartments for the over 65s, all lying around a beautiful village centre setting on a 10.3 acre site enclosed by natural woodland.  

Ampfield Meadows Retirement Village was designed to promote wellbeing and comfort with all that’s needed to help residents lead healthy, independent lives on this fabulous. The luxurious apartments are set in beautifully landscaped gardens with access to stunning community facilities that include a wellness spa and gym, a stylish brasserie, bistro and café. 

Award-winning construction and control

The site has a natural fall to it and the landscape was designed to embrace its topology as well as provide safe accessibility across the entire estate for its residents and visitors.

Work began on the site in June 2021 and, in March 2023, the site team was presented with a Quality Recognition Award. The Premier Guarantee Excellence Awards recognise the UK’s best developments that are covered by its structural warranty and building control schemes. You can read the full story here.
