Easy-living retirement apartments
As an award-winning retirement property developer, all of our homes are designed to be a joy to live in - and our apartments are no exception. Subtle home adaptations run throughout the contemporary fitted kitchens, spacious living rooms and sleek shower rooms, so you can enjoy a light and spacious retirement apartment that offers seamless style, safety and comfort. Some retirement apartments have private balconies or patios too.
Our choice of independent or assisted living developments allows you to find a home that best supports your needs now and in the future. Retirement Living apartments offer independent living for people aged 60 and over.

Why choose an apartment for retirement?
From less maintenance to the peace of mind of the integrated safety and security features, life in a McCarthy Stone retirement apartment offers many benefits for older people. Here are some of the reasons retirement apartments are a popular choice for seniors looking to downsize their home.
The benefits of a McCarthy Stone retirement apartment
When you choose a McCarthy Stone retirement apartment, you don’t just secure a beautiful new home - you unlock access to everything our lifestyle has to offer.
These benefits include:
- Carefully chosen locations: most of our retirement apartments are within easy walking distance to shops, cafes and amenities
- Moving support: with services like our free Smooth Move removals package or free entitlements advice, we make moving easy
- A friendly community: with supportive neighbours just outside your front door, alone time is an option, but loneliness is never a problem
- Total independence: but with the added security of a 24/7 emergency alarm and friendly staff on-site you’ll feel completely safe and secure
- Shared spaces: where you can socialise with others informally or attend one of the (entirely optional!) regular clubs or events on offer
- More time: with bigger jobs, like gardening, taken care of there’s more time to enjoy the finer things in life, like golf, lunches out or film nights with friends in the shared lounge
- Pet friendly: with a pet-friendly retirement home your well-behaved furry friend will be warmly welcomed
- Peace of mind: with safety and security built in, friendly staff on-site and tailored independent lifestyle support services (Retirement Living PLUS only)
- Plus much more: our communities offer things like guest suites, landscaped gardens, restaurants, hobby rooms, wellness suites, potting shed and more…
Retirement apartments designed around you
Everything about our retirement apartments is carefully considered to create comfortable, convenient and independent living. From spacious interiors and beautiful communal areas to sought-after locations, you get so much more than a just retirement apartment. And our homeowners agree.
It may also surprise you to learn that our service charges are not-for-profit too. All the money raised is used to pay for services including the team: the House Managers, gardeners, cleaners, lift engineers etc. that keep the communal spaces welcoming and well-maintained. With everything clearly explained there are no hidden fees or nasty surprises either.
Looking for a retirement rental? You don’t pay service charges on our retirement apartments to rent - the monthly rent covers everything.
