Luxury real estate is embracing the longevity trend, with elite homeowners and developers now incorporating high-tech “longevity rooms” into private residences and residential developments. These wellness-focused spaces, filled with devices like hyperbaric oxygen chambers, red-light beds, and plasma machines such as the €142,000 “Human Regenerator,” aim to enhance healthspan — the quality of life as we age — rather than just lifespan.
Gary Shepherd, a Surrey-based property developer, is among a growing number of wealthy individuals integrating this equipment into their homes, motivated by personal health improvements and the desire for daily recovery and optimisation. Industry insiders note a sharp rise in interest since the Covid-19 pandemic, particularly in markets like London, Miami, and Dubai. Developers such as Sam Nazarian’s The Estate are now hiring “chief longevity officers” to shape future biohacking spaces in their properties.
Experts caution that while enthusiasm is high, scientific evidence for some devices remains limited. Still, the demand is influencing home design worldwide, from in-house doctors and functional wellness consultants to advanced water filtration systems and infrared saunas. As longevity becomes a selling point, the line between personal healthcare and luxury living continues to blur — especially in high-end markets where both aspiration and disposable income drive innovation.
