About McCarthy & Stone

At McCarthy & Stone, we are focused on providing high quality homes and services to make later life a happy, healthy and rewarding experience.

Since building our first scheme in 1977, we have become Britain’s leading provider of retirement accommodation. We now provide 70% of all specialist housing for owner-occupiers in later life, having built more than 45,000 individual apartments in 1,000 different developments.

We recognise that getting older can present challenges. That’s why everything we do is built around the needs of our residents; from the design of our apartments, to our on-site care and support services, the requirements of later life living is always at the front of our mind.

Our considered approach means we are the only home builder to have gained the top rating in the Home Builders’ Federation’s Customer Satisfaction Survey every year since it was introduced in 2005. We are committed to ensuring that older people can continue to enjoy their independence safe in the knowledge that help and support is never far away.

As part of our commitment to local communities, we work closely with site neighbours and stakeholders to help ensure we prepare the best possible plans before we submit a planning application for a new scheme. This consultation website is part of our activity to engage local people in the design of our schemes, and we hope you find them helpful and informative.
