Life is better because…

Three retired homeowner's enjoying a coffee and a chat in a McCarthy Stone communal lounge.

McCarthy Stone can help you to live a better life

People move to our properties for many different reasons. But from what they tell us there are common themes. Often something has changed.

Sometimes it’s a big thing. A bereavement or an illness. But often it’s the little things. Life has become a little more challenging. Stairs feel a little steeper. Weeding is a little tougher. The house feels a little lonelier. 

If any of this rings true for you or a loved one - retirement living could be the answer. 

Why not pop into your local development to find out why our homeowners love their life with us?

A retired homeowner from McCarthy Stone development  Foundry Place in Beccles.

“I was rattling around the empty rooms”

Loneliness after losing his beloved wife prompted Dr Stephen Hubbard to move to a new life in Foundry Place, Beccles. He says, “I’ve formed some lovely friendships in the past year or so and had I not moved here, I feel I would have become more and more socially isolated.”
A retired couple enjoying the gardens at a McCarthy Stone development.

“We no longer have to worry about things”

When the upkeep and stairs in their four-bedroom home got too much, renting a retirement property near their children was the perfect option. “It’s allowed us to futureproof our retirement, as we can opt-in to tailored domestic support and personal care packages should we need to.”
Retiree Barbara from McCarthy Stone development, Bluebell House with her dog Frisby.

“The neighbours are very fond of Frisby and Cody”

Sue and Barbara would never have moved to Bluebell House in Milton Keynes, if their precious pups couldn’t come too. But, like most McCarthy Stone communities, pets are welcome. Now the two dogs are part of the wider family. “They’re absolutely spoilt by everyone”.

“I know my parents are in good hands”

Christine encouraged her parents, Julie and Alan to move more than 100 miles so she could keep an eye on them as their mobility worsened. “It’s been great watching mum and dad settle into their new lifestyle."
