LIVING AT GAYTON HOUSE Gayton House is not a retirement complex.
It is a small, architecturally distinctive development in a real village centre, designed for people who want the freedom of independent living with the comfort of a welcoming community nearby.
Residents enjoy: - A friendly on-site host, on hand to make daily life easier - Communal living spaces and a residents' sitting room - Beautifully landscaped gardens - A guest suite for visiting family and friends - On-site parking for residents and visitors - Secure entry and 24-hour emergency call points - Lift access to all floors with level thresholds throughout The on-site host is not a carer.
They are a helpful, familiar presence who knows every resident by name and is there to make the practicalities of daily life smoother, from taking in parcels to helping coordinate maintenance.
WHY GAYTON HOUSE IS DIFFERENT Lilyford is a family-run business. We build small, premium developments in carefully chosen village and town centre locations.
We do not build large-scale retirement complexes with expensive on-site facilities that drive up service charges. Our residents live in the heart of a real community, not sealed off from one.
At Gayton House: - There is no exit fee. When you sell your apartment, the proceeds are yours. - There is no ground rent.
- The service charge is sensible and transparent, covering building insurance, a proportion of heating and water, maintenance, the on-site host, the 24-hour careline, and all fire and security measures.
It does not cover the cost of spas, restaurants, or extensive grounds, because we do not build them.
- Owners can rent their apartment if their circumstances change, providing a practical safety net and protecting long-term value.
- The management company is employed by the owners and can be replaced if it is not delivering the standard you expect.
After completion, Gayton House will be managed by Churchill Estates Management, who have one of the strongest track records in the sector.
Churchill offer a specialist in-house agency to help owners resell or rent, and can often defer service charges on unoccupied properties so they are only payable once a sale or rental has been achieved.
LOCATION Gayton House is on Vicarage Road in the centre of Yateley, within walking distance of shops, cafes, a pharmacy, and everyday amenities.
The village has a strong sense of community and is well connected to surrounding areas including Fleet, Farnborough, Camberley, and Sandhurst. Frimley Park Hospital is a short drive away.
This is a home in the middle of village life, not on the edge of it.
