County at a glance - Greater London
Greater London reaches far beyond its famous centre, from Hampstead’s hilly streets in the north to the downs of the south. Pegasus has three communities here: two in Hampstead and one in Purley.
Hampstead brings historic shopping streets, Hampstead Heath and the Northern and Mildmay lines. Purley, in the south, has its own local centre, mainline trains to London Bridge and the chalk downland of Riddlesdown nearby. Whether you want to extend city life in a more comfortable setting or discover more of the outdoors, you’ve plenty to choose from.
Why retire in Greater London?
-
North or south of the river, each setting has its own high street. You can choose the London neighbourhood that fits you best.
-
Hampstead Heath has woodland, meadows and ponds, and Riddlesdown near Purley has chalk downland, so there’s a distinctive landscape on either side.
-
Burgh House in Hampstead hosts concerts and talks, and Fairfield Halls in Croydon runs a year-round programme, so culture can be part of any week.
-
Hampstead is on the Northern and Mildmay lines and Purley has trains to London Bridge, so you can choose the network that suits your journeys.
Retirement living in Greater London
In Hampstead, High Street and Heath Street form the heart of local shopping, and the hilly streets give every walk a bit of character. In Purley, the local centre has cafés, restaurants and shops, and the library on Banstead Road runs reading groups.
London journeys are best judged by destination, so think about where your friends, family and favourite places are. Hampstead Underground and Hampstead Heath are separate stations on different lines, while Purley’s trains run into London Bridge.
