Flora Grange
A brand-new McCarthy Stone Retirement Living development currently under construction in the attractive suburb of Stannington, close to Sheffield and the Peak District. Once completed, the complex will feature 23 one bed and 20 two bed apartments, exclusively available to the over 60s. The safety and security of all residents in Stannington will be ensured through the latest technology. Security alarms in all apartments will keep your belongings safe, and a camera entry system lets you check who is calling before permitting access. Our on-site House Manager is also available to keep an eye on things and help residents with any issues or queries.
Every apartment in the new development will be designed to a high specification, with modern fixtures and fittings. There will be Sky TV and telephone connection points in the living room and main bedroom, and a fully fitted kitchen with oven, hob and hood. Some apartments will also have the added luxury of private balconies. Keep your independence well into retirement, with lifts to all floors and wheelchair access throughout the development. Each apartment will also have a 24 hour call system for peace of mind. There’s a scooter store on site, so getting to the shops or the park will never be an issue. We also allow pets, so there’s no need to give up beloved family members before you move.
As with all McCarthy Stone Retirement Living developments, Stannington will encourage a close-knit community feel thanks to the sociable shared spaces, including the Communal lounge where residents can meet their new neighbours, and the extensive landscaped gardens. We limit the number of apartments so that residents can get to know fellow residents and feel truly at home.

Occupancy options
It’s an affordable approach to owning a stunning new retirement home:
- You may be able to access cash tied up in your existing property (known as ‘equity release’)
- You can choose to buy a bigger percentage of the property in the future – this reduces the rent you pay
- If you want, we can buy your existing property as a part exchange
- You’ll be eligible for our free Smooth Move removal service, plus a contribution to legal and estate agent fees
The rent is set at the point of purchase. Annual rent review on the date specified in your lease will be indexed to movements in the Retail Price Index (RPI) subject to a minimum 0.5%. RPI has been in the range c.1-4% since 2013 and was 3.3% in March 2018. 3.3% is equivalent to an extra £1.98 per week for typical rent of £60 per week.
What is Part buy, part rent?
A flexible, affordable alternative to outright purchase, with all the benefits of ownership. For more information call: 0800 201 4811

70% is the standard option – there are options to increase this over time, known as staircasing.

What further costs and fees are involved You can purchase further 10% increments, based on valuation at that point. You can staircase to 100% at which point the property would be wholly owned. You would stop paying rent, but service charges and ground rent continue to be payable to McCarthy Stone.
Each time you staircase you need to plan for additional costs such as valuation fee, legal expenses, SDLT*/LTT** if applicable.

Do I pay Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) or Land Transaction Tax (LTT) on a private shared ownership property?
You will need to pay SDLT*/LTT** on a private shared ownership property, but you may have less to pay than if you had purchased outright. You should seek advice from your solicitor to confirm how much SDLT you have to pay.
