For savvy over 60s buying at McCarthy and Stone’s Hughes Court retirement development in Luton could be a particularly shrewd move. Special discounts and packages, no chance of being gazumped and lower maintenance and running costs means there’s never been a better time to buy new.
McCarthy and Stone’s purpose-built retirement apartments are designed to accommodate modern lifestyles and offer features such as electrical sockets at a raised height to reduce bending, illuminated light switches, a video entry system, easy grip lever taps in the bathroom and kitchen and energy efficient heating.
As well as making savings on fuel bills, purchasers at Hughes Court will also save money on DIY. The cost of maintaining an older property is often underestimated, but research by the BBC has shown that this can mount up to over £6,000 a year per household. Plus a new home means free time can be spent enjoying retirement instead of decorating!
Robin Pike, regional sales and marketing manager, commented: “There is currently much speculation and comment about the state of the property market, but smart buyers know that there are some great deals out there at the moment. The argument to buy a new home over second hand is also compelling, both in terms of the help being offered to make your move affordable and hassle-free, and the costs you can save once you move in.
“We believe that with the right advice and support, now is a great time to buy and our latest range of special incentives is aimed at giving homebuyers that extra helping hand. Properties at the right price, like those at Hughes Court, are attracting a lot of attention from buyers so I’d encourage prospective purchasers to come and see us soon to avoid disappointment.”
Hughes Court is situated just off Quantock Rise in the Bramingham Park area of Luton and offers a collection of apartments priced from £149,950. There are landscaped gardens for residents to enjoy, a communal lounge to socialise and relax in and a guest suite for family and friends to stay in at the development.
Local shops on Quantock Rise provide for everyday needs and include a Sainsbury’s supermarket, pharmacy and newsagent. Luton town centre is just three and a half miles from Hughes Court caters for all your shopping needs and there are good bus services in and around Luton.
