A large ensuite bathroom with shower enhances the accommodation which is sutable for a single person or a couple.
The Abbeyfield Chalfonts Society
The Society owns 'Austenmead', a substantial detached home with extensive grounds situated between Austenwood and Gold Hill Common, Chalfont St Peter. Austenmead offers sheltered comfortable en suite accommodation for 11 residents, who are expected to be reasonably fit and independent.
 We would hope to go on caring for our residents if they become frail but nursing is not provided beyond that normally to be expected within a family situation. However, if the time comes when the resident begins to require more nursing care than we can provide, every help will be given in finding more suitable accommodation in the locality, for example, in a local Abbeyfield Care Home.
"The House is managed by a Resident House Manager and his wife with the assistance of a Deputy House Manager who between them are able to deal with any emergency situation should one arise."
The house is within walking distance of the village. it is on the regular bus route between Chalfont St Peter and Gerrards Cross, connecting with the Chiltern Line train service to Marylebone, High Wycombe and Birmingham.
In addition, the committee provides entertainment on a regular basis for the residents, for example, live musical evenings by local entertainers, gentle keep-fit sessions, mini-bus trips to places of interest, theatre trips, and an annual strawberry tea in the summer with entertainment by a local band, etc.
