This figure expected to increase by 41 per cent to nearly 18m by 2040.<\/p>\n<p>Yet there is a severe shortage of retirement properties available. Just 80,000 and around 7,000 new units delivered each year.<sup>\u00a0<\/sup><\/p>\n<p>Located just two miles from the centre of Tunbridge Wells, Inspired&#8217;s scheme will offer 146 apartments with work starting in the summer.<\/p>\n<p>Neal Dale, Development Director at Inspired Villages, said:\u00a0\u201cThis is another step forward in our plans to deliver age-appropriate homes to East Sussex. Approval from the council means we at Inspired Villages can provide homes that support the wellbeing of over 65s, both mentally and physically, and help them to live independent lives for longer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/newclone.retiremove.co.uk\/blog\/ivg-logo\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-32400 aligncenter size-medium\" src=\"http:\/\/newclone.retiremove.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/IVG-Logo-300x175.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"175\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_map address=&#8221;Royal Tunbridge Wells, Tunbridge Wells, UK&#8221; zoom_level=&#8221;11&#8243; address_lat=&#8221;51.132377&#8243; address_lng=&#8221;0.263695&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_map_pin title=&#8221;Little Mount Farm&#8221; pin_address=&#8221;Tunbridge Wells TN2 5JW, UK&#8221; zoom_level=&#8221;14&#8243; pin_address_lat=&#8221;51.1154666&#8243; pin_address_lng=&#8221;0.2797627&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.14.6&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_map_pin][\/et_pb_map][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Inspired Villages, has been granted planning permission to build a \u00a3100 million retirement community on the edge of Tunbridge Wells Phase one of the 9.5-acre development will include the village centre, a medical hub, and 55 of the146 planned homes.
