‘I built my own per­fect downs­ize prop­erty’

...Accord­ing to a recent study by the Homeown­ers Alli­ance, one in seven homeown­ers aged 55 or older has put plans to downs­ize on hold in the past two years, largely because of a short­age of suit­able prop­erty. Many downs­izers who approach Carol Peett, of West Wales Prop­erty Find­ers http://www.westwalespropertyfinders.co.uk, are after a house that will delay their mov­ing into a care home. “One-storey liv­ing is a huge bene­fit ... import­ant cri­teria to think about are a down­stairs bed­room and bath­room if stairs become dif­fi­cult,” says Peett. “An inde­pend­ent flat or annexe will allow them to let to someone who can just be around in case they need help ... but can ulti­mately be used for a fam­ily mem­ber or a carer if this is neces­sary.”
