New retirement apartments planned for sale in Bishops Stortford, Hertfordshire.

McCarthy & Stone pioneered the concept of private retirement housing in the UK and have retirement developments nationwide.

Retirement living from McCarthy & Stone however is so much more than just a retirement flat. It’s designed to enable older retired home owners to lead an active, independent lifestyle, without many of the maintenance worries often associated with home ownership; all in a safe and secure environment.

Bishops Stortford is a pretty market town in Hertfordshire just west of the M11 motorway, on the county boundary with Essex, and close to London Stansted Airport.  The town has plenty of transport links, by rail to London Liverpool Street, and by bus or road to Stansted, Harlow, Hertford, Great Dunmow and Epping.  It was once a Roman settlement on the main trade route between St Albans and Colchester, and now is the major economic hub for the smaller surrounding villages such as Sawbridgeworth and Stansted Mountfitchet.

Situated on Legions Way, just off the main Stansted Road, these retirement homes will enjoy a prominent position close to shops, the town centre and the railway station.

The retirement apartments will be managed by a house manager who will oversee the running of the development including maintenance of the grounds and building.  Key retirement living related features of the development will include a communal residents' lounge, a guest suite, laundry room and a lift that will provide access to all floors.

The perfect environment for those in retirement, homes in this retirement development will each contain a bedroom, living room, kitchen and bathroom with the option to change to a shower if required.

The Bishops Stortford development has been granted planning permission and it is our intention to construct 45 independent retirement living flats.
