Retirement Cottages in Wigginton

We are currently awaiting planning for a proposed collection of exclusive two bedroom retirement cottages in Wigginton. These cottages are a great alternative for those looking to downsize and maintain a higher level of independence beyond apartment living.

Our cottages typically attract purchasers that want the benefits of living alongside like minded neighbours, in addition to maintaining a life of independence. You have the option to be part of the main Lodge community if you wish via a small club membership fee which allows you to benefit from the community activities and events, but this is completely optional.

Cottages have the benefit of dedicated parking and a private garden which is great for those with pets, we even provide a small shed in the garden for storage. Cottages are sold freehold and also benefit from a straightforward management arrangement which provides services such as window cleaning, communal garden maintenance and a 24-hour careline support, ideal when thinking about the future. These cottages will be part of a wider retirement community featuring a collection of 45 one and two bedroom apartments at Tannery Lodge.

Wigginton is a sought-after village offering a variety of local facilities including shops, sports and health facilities, and public houses. It is also conveniently situated for easy access to a wide range of amenities in York City Centre.

The A1237 York by-pass ensures quick and easy connections to the local road network, making this development a perfect choice for an active and independent retirement. Additionally Wigginton is adjacent to Haxby, where you’ll find supermarkets, a Post Office, banks, and a selection of traditional shops and local businesses.
