Here at Pegasus Homes, we know that where your home is, is as important as the home itself. That’s why we are committed to only building homes in locations that are well connected to amenities, in highly desirable towns, villages and cities from Newcastle to Cornwall. 

For many people, the thought of retiring to the countryside or the coast, or even abroad, is their dream. But retiring to city centres has many benefits that can be enjoyed in later life. 

Many of our developments can be found in the heart of bustling cities such as Winchester, Bristol, Lichfield and more, offering residents of those communities the perfect balance between the bustle of city life and the quiet sanctuary of a Pegasus community.

Our residents living at a Pegasus Homes community in the city are afforded ample opportunities to enjoy everything that metropolitan living has to offer. Residents of our Lichfield Bonds and Chapter House communities in Lichfield, are able to enjoy a bustling weekly market in front of the Gothic Cathedral, as well as a huge range of local small businesses and reputable chain restaurants, within walking distance of their front doorstep. 

City life also provides a sense of connection - not just with the local community and tourists who travel from far and wide to join the Lichfield Festival each year, but literal connection via train and public transport to Birmingham and beyond.

Both Bath and Bristol are appreciated worldwide as cultural hotspots and must-visit cities, with landmarks like the historic Bath Spa to the Clifton Suspension Bridge putting them both on the map. Our Bath Leat and The Vincent communities are carefully positioned within reach of Bath Cathedral and the Bristol Downs respectively, but still that bit removed from the busyness of the city centre, to ensure our residents have the tranquility and comfort they so deserve in later life.

City living also provides ease of access to the hobby and cultural amenities that our residents most enjoy. Our Latheram House community in Cheltenham is within walking distance of the Cheltenham Everyman Theatre and has been proudly hosting performances since the 1800s. Our residents of Belle Vue in Hampstead are within walking distance of both Hampstead Heath when seeking a tranquil spot to take in the great outdoors, or a walk in the opposite direction will bring you to the many independent local restaurants of Hampstead High Street. What’s more, living in a city centre means our residents are within reach of important amenities such as doctors surgeries, pharmacies and dentists - meaning both physical and mental health can be prioritised when living in the city.

For our Land team here at Pegasus Homes, the quality of the location of where we build is always front and centre. We know our residents and what is important to them, which is why all of our city-centre communities are close to public transport links and amenities guaranteed to enhance the lives of our residents, without sacrificing our commitment beautifully landscaped, elegantly designed and socially connected homes. All which are perfectly placed in the heart of some of England’s most desirable city locations.
