You have worked hard all your life and now you’re looking to retire somewhere that will allow you to live a comfortable, secure, laid back lifestyle with all of the amenities and conveniences you’ve worked so hard to obtain. The once small village of Gurgaon in the northwestern region of India has blossomed into a thriving metropolitan suburb of Delhi, rich in historical interest and chock-full of modern conveniences and comforts. If you are looking to purchase a flat in which you can retire in style, then Gurgaon may have just the place for you. 

Stylish Modern Apartments
Since the economy in India is flourishing, so too is the residential market. With the increase in demand has come an increase in construction. New residential projects in Gurgaon by Unitech and other prestigious construction companies have been well planned and built to suit the needs of discerning clientele. Customers have options to purchase builder floors, independent floors, 2 bhk flats and 3 bhk flats in sought after locations like the area along the Golf Course Extension Road, reports NDTV.com. Many of the new and upcoming residential project locations in Gurgaon come equipped with better infrastructure, wider roads, metro connectivity, amenities like electric back-up systems, prime parking, lifts, and even club memberships.

 

When facing retirement, you should ensure your home will be able to keep you comfortable as you grow older and your need for convenience increases. For example, you may want a flat in a building with a lift in case your ability to climb stairs one day diminishes. Or you may want to live in a flat that has good security facilities. You should check with real estate developers in Gurgaon to find a flat that offers the amenities you need to be content throughout your retirement. 

Transportation and Resources
As you grow older and face your silver years as a retiree you may find that your working status is not the only thing that changes. Circumstances such as your ability to drive yourself from place to place, your need for medical care, and other necessities may change. Gurgaon offers easy transportation by car, train, and taxi, both around the city and to Delhi. The area is also home to several top notch medical facilities and all the shopping you could ever need. According to Gurgaon.gov, travel to and from Gurgaon is made simple via National Highway 8 and South Delhi Highway. There is also a train that runs express routes to Delhi and the Indira Gandhi International Airport is a quick thirty minute drive from town. These conveniences mean that if you plan to travel during your retirement or if you plan to have friends and family travel to visit you, getting to and from the airport will not be an inconvenience. 

Entertainment
Retirees have a lot more time on their hands. So, you may be concerned with finding things to fill up that time. Gurgaon offers a wide variety of places to visit and interesting things to see and do. Tripadvisor.com explains that Gurgaon has numerous, immaculately landscaped parks and wildlife sanctuaries. You can take walks in the cool shade of lush trees when the weather is hot, take a day to go bird watching, or have a picnic with friends in one of the many gathering areas in the city’s parks. Unitech residential townships in Gurgaon like the Unitech Nirvana Country, Gurgaon have beautifully landscaped parks with independent villas around each park, and apartment complexes with kids play areas, amphitheatres, walking paths & pretty gardens located near some of Gurgaon’s best golf courses as well, so if you enjoy golf you can be in the center of the action.

 

Tripadvisor.com also notes that there are more than two dozen shopping plazas offering meeting places, restaurants, and stores to meet all of your dinning and shopping needs; they also provide a nice place to walk and meet people when the weather does not permit being out of doors. Also, Gurgaon has several libraries and museums to provide intellectual stimulation and entertainment. And, if you foresee having grandchildren to entertain, having a flat in Gurgaon will put you close by several entertainment venues for children, including the Stellar Children’s Museum and live theater venues like Kingdom of Dreams & Epicenter.


Retirees face a unique challenge when seeking to buy a home for their retirement. There are considerations of issues caused by aging that must be taken into account when purchasing a flat. A person who is retiring must also consider what they want to do with their free time and if their intended home is in a location that will allow them to fill their time with the activities they enjoy. With prime locations in the travel-friendly metropolitan area of Gurgaon, clients looking for the perfect retirement home may find all they seek in the new residential projects being offered by Unitech and other developers. Gurgaon offers all of the conveniences of a major city with the charm and natural beauty of a historic village. Flats constructed in the area, especially those in prime locations in Gurgaon, come full of amenities that can help make your life after work comfortable and relaxed. Once you have settled on the lifestyle you seek, you can choose the best home for your retirement years.
