Maintaining a healthy lifestyle has always been important in our lives and is achieved through various forms differing from person to person. This includes physical, mental and emotional health, social connectedness, and a healthy work-life balance. And whilst we may try to eat our five a day and meditate, it’s easy to let other factors slip and fall out of routine.
Addressing the need to help shift personal priorities, amenities in new build homes are being reimagined to promote healthy minds and bodies for residents, and it’s proving popular with buyers with many willing to pay a 15-20% premium for amenities that facilitate this when buying a new home, according to Business Insider.
There are various amenities to look for when choosing a new home that will support your drive for a healthy lifestyle. Finding the time to unwind and take a break from work can be difficult when living in London, so having amenities right on your doorstep encourages that sacred time to unwind and enjoy time with family, friends or neighbours.
“Creating an environment that holistically promotes a healthy physical and mental lifestyle for our residents is extremely important to us”
Arguably the most sought after is access to outdoor and green space. According to a recent survey conducted by Zoopla, 49% of London homebuyers said that access to outdoor space, such as a garden, balcony, or terrace, was their highest priority. This is a driving factor to improve physical and mental fitness, whilst also encouraging social connections to create a sense of belonging in a community.
Regal London recognises the importance of wellness in peoples’ lives and this has been translated into the design of its schemes. Most notably, its latest development Fulton & Fifth in Wembley is home to ultra-luxe amenities specially selected to support the residents’ wellbeing, right on your doorstep.
Residents have access to amenities typically found within super-prime developments and five-star hotels. These include a fully equipped gym, swimming pool, plus cinema room. Regal are taking ‘wellness’ amenities one step further by including a yoga studio and its own high-tech golf simulator, to be used 24-hours of the day or booked out to enjoy winding down with friends.
Surrounded by green space, the design of Fulton & Fifth is a reflection of the area by incorporating landscaped gardens and residents’ roof terraces. Each apartment comes with a terrace or balcony meaning each resident has their own private outdoor space that looks over the surrounding green spaces and lively culture of Wembley.
Alongside fantastic connectivity for commuters and proximity to central shopping and lifestyle destinations, the amenities that now accompany these new homes are the epitome of modern living with that focus on wellbeing.
Jacob Sullivan, Sales and Marketing Director at Regal London said “We continuously monitor buyers’ priorities and preferences when they’re looking for a new home and have seen a significant increase in the desire for wellness amenities in the past three years. Therefore, creating an environment that holistically promotes a healthy physical and mental lifestyle for our residents is extremely important to us. Fulton & Fifth is perfectly located by green space, shops, cafes and community hustle and bustle so we wanted to ensure this was weaved into the design, while incorporating amenities unique to residential developments such as the golf simulator.”
