Many of our homeowners are pleased to find that the service charges for their apartment tend to work out at less than what they were paying in like-for-like costs at their previous property.

Energy bills often turn out to be lower thanks to the modern construction methods we use at all our developments. Your new apartment is also likely to be a more manageable size and so cheaper to run.

When Customers discuss the purchase of a McCarthy Stone apartment with us, they receive a service charge leaflet and our Sales Executive sits down with them to help them fill in the costs, review what is covered in the management services and compare them to day-to-day running costs in their current home. Our Sales Executive ensures that they have a detailed knowledge of ongoing costs before a sale is completed

Usually this can take between 12 to 16 weeks. We understand that some customers may have a time period that will more suitable for them and we aim to be as flexible as we can.

The vibrant city centre is packed with an abundance of restaurants, coffee shops, shopping and entertainment. Oxford Street is the home of independent shops and dining. Then there’s the all-encompassing Westquay shopping centre and Ocean Village where you can enjoy a delicious meal or drink overlooking the marina. The town hosts plentiful annual events to enjoy, including Southampton Mayflower Maritime Festival and Southampton International Film Festival. The New Forest is also close by - fantastic for long walks and wildlife spotting.

The city is a major hub for international cruising, so makes the perfect base for luxurious holidays and adventures. It is also surprisingly easy to explore the Isle of Wight. On Red Funnel ferries, it takes around 30 minutes to get to Cowes as a foot passenger, slightly longer by car.

Southampton is very accessible by road, with major links to the M3 and M27 motorways and offers a comprehensive bus service as well as a well-connected central train station.
