New Assisted Living retirement apartments are planned for sale in Eastleigh, Hampshire

McCarthy & Stone pioneered the concept of private purpose built retirement housing in the UK over 30 years ago. An Assisted Living retirement development bridges the gap between more conventional retirement living and residential care or a nursing home, by offering a range of additional features designed to help residents retain their independence and importantly, for those in retirement, home ownership.

The additional features, which extend to both the retirement flats and the communals include a waitress service restaurant plus domestic assistance and personal care that can be tailored to meet the changing needs of residents in retirement.

Eastleigh is located in Hampshire, situated between Southampton and Winchester.  It is a railway town with a long history.

Originally named Bishopstoke Junction, the railway adopted Eastleigh as its name in 1923 after the town that had sprung up around it.  The Eastleigh Museum holds information on the town and surrounding areas.

Eastleigh Borough covers the areas from Netley on the banks of Southampton Water and the villages of Hamble-le Rice, Botley and Bursledon.  Hedge End, West End, Fair Oak and Bishopstoke are developing areas locally.  Eastleigh is situated close to the residential areas of Chandler's Ford and Boyatt Wood.

The assisted living retirement flats will be situated on Leigh Road, the main arterial route in Eastleigh Town Centre, and is ideally located for the shops and services on offer at the Swan Centre.

Eastleigh is a main line railway station with services to Southampton, Brockenhurst in the New Forest, Winchester, London Waterloo and Chandler's Ford.  The bus station is located on Upper Market Street.  Eastleigh Airport offers flights to a variety of UK and European destinations.
