Downsizing can often be a welcomed lifestyle change, giving many who’ve made the transition a newfound lease on life. You can choose downsizing in style, without the maintenance of a larger home, downsizing provides the unique chance to simplify your life and find more time to do the things you enjoy.
This makes choosing where to downsize one of the most important decisions. Finding a new home that’s located close to services like restaurants, retail, healthcare and transport will help you make the most of this fresh start.
Wherever you choose to live, apartment living has the added benefit of increased security, giving you greater peace of mind around the clock. It also has the advantage of being able to lock and leave, making travel or extended time away a lot easier. Many apartment buildings have a close-knit community, where residents know each other and find comfort in seeing some friendly faces during the day.
A great example of a community coming together is in Ascot, an area that is renowned for it’s traditional, grand Queenslander homes. Local residents are now opting to simplify life and relocating to the new Ascot Green development, located along the iconic Eagle Farm racecourse in Brisbane. This unique blend of green, open spaces overlooking the race track while being centrally located within the heart of the blue-chip suburb of Ascot has appealed to many downsizers.
Developed by Mirvac, in partnership with the Brisbane Racing Club, Ascot Green is a growing community of people who were simply looking to ‘right size’. The apartments on offer are larger than what’s traditionally available in the market, with attention given to the ample balconies making it a perfect spot to host family gatherings and guests.
Mirvac Queensland General Manager of Residential Development Warwick Bible said the Ascot Green development was geared towards owner occupiers as a premium had been placed on ensuring apartments were oversized and buildings featured extensive communal facilities.
“Many of our buyers are moving from Ascot and the surrounding areas from big family homes. They are seeking generous floorplans, extra-large balconies and open outlooks, making Ascot House incredibly attractive,” Mr Bible said.
“Local buyers from Ascot, Clayfield and Hamilton want to remain in the area, but reduce their home maintenance commitments without compromising on the space, style or privacy of a large residence.”
At Ascot House, generous floorplans up to 349sqm create luxurious, flowing spaces, complemented by expansive balconies and stunning green views. A short walk away, the brand-new Racecourse Village Shopping Centre offers everyday necessities at the full-line Woolworths as well as a doctor’s surgery, dentist and pharmacy. Back at home, the rooftop, pool and common areas create a sense of warmth and community, along with secure access and an onsite building manager.
Ascot House offers sprawling outdoor space – relax while the grandchildren play freely, and your beloved pet explores the scene.
