It’s your retirement.
Buying an apartment in your retirement isn’t always the best option – so why should it be the only option? Assisted living should always be flexible. We offer our apartments for rent because that just suits some people better.
Renting in retirement is getting more and more popular because it offers all the benefits of independent living without any of the stress of owning a house. Not only is there no need for stamp duty costs or legal fees when you move in, but you can also wave bye-bye to those day-to-day maintenance commitments, like building repairs and mowing your lawn. Aside from your rent, the only other charge we make is a one-time joining fee.

‘Bespoke’ not volume.
Our portfolio of high quality assisted living communities is growing rapidly – each as unique and individual as the people who choose to live with us.
One ingredient of this success is the diverse breadth and depth of experience behind the Birchgrove name. All working together to create a community where people can age well by staying healthier, happier and stronger for longer.

Smart Assistance
As a future-minded company, we are always looking for innovative ways to improve our residents’ health and wellbeing. The Nobi Smart Lamps is a stylish light that blends seamlessly into any interior.
Under the Nobi lampshade lies a high-tech and cutting-edge AI universe that helps to prevent falls and ensure immediate access and care is available to residents should a fall occur. The technology is not just a potential lifesaver but also improves our residents’ independence.
The Nobi Smart Lamps are being installed across our six new retirement communities.
Our advisors are here to listen, answer all your questions, and consider what's right for you first and foremost.
We prefer to provide a more personal level of service and arrange a visit to your home when you enquire to help us understand what’s important to you in the comfort of your own home.
We believe that the current housing options for people over 65 exclude a large section of those who don't want to manage another house purchase. Assisted living for rent is the missing piece in the housing puzzle; not right for all, but perfect for some.

Inclusive rent
The number one concern for most households right now is the rising cost of living. Prices are rising at their fastest rate – energy, food, household goods, council tax, water bills.
At Birchgrove, you don’t have any of the headaches or hassles associated with the above. This is because we have one inclusive rent to give you complete control of your expenditure.
The Birchgrove rental model covers the large-ticket expenses like energy costs - electricity, heating and water - and many of the rising incidental costs that go along with owning your own home i.e. housekeeping, broadband, window cleaning, gardening, buildings insurance, security and a whole host of others things.
