New Assisted Living retirement apartments for sale in Rushden, Northamptonshire

McCarthy & Stone pioneered the concept of private purpose built retirement housing in the UK over 30 years ago. An Assisted Living retirement development bridges the gap between more conventional retirement living and residential care or a nursing home, by offering a range of additional features designed to help residents retain their independence and importantly, for those in retirement, home ownership.

Townsend Court consists of 69 one and two bedroom assisted living retirement homes.  Ideally located on High Street South less than one mile from Rushden town centre, these assisted living retirement apartments are also close to Northamptonshire’s major road network.  It is within easy reach of the A45, A14 and M1 and M6 motorways, giving access to larger towns such as Wellingborough: Kettering; Northampton; Bedford and Milton Keynes.

Rushden is the largest town in East Northamptonshire and is located approximately 16 miles from Northampton and 13 miles from Bedford.  It is well served by strategic roads, and boasts some pleasing Victorian and Edwardian architecture in the town centre.  A bustling town, Rushden is most proud of its Hall which dates back to the 14th Century and is an interesting mix of styles, resulting in an attractive manor house of mellow limestone under a clay tiled roof.

Townsend Court boasts a large conservatory, galleried library and south facing garden, and Rushden Hall Park right next door with 32 acres of beautiful parkland open to the public.  Situated only 100 yards away from the bus stop, residents benefit from an excellent bus service, providing regular routes to local towns and villages such as Olney Village and further afield.  The nearest train station is at Wellingborough, and both Luton Airport and Birmingham Airport are easily reached by driving a short distance to Bedford, and then taking the rail link to Gatwick Airport.

An Estates Manager will oversee the running of this Assisted Living retirement development in Rushden, and staff will be on site 24 hours a day.  Key assisted living related features will include a residents' lounge, laundry room, waitress service restaurant (or in the event of illness meals can be taken to a residents flat), function room and lifts that give access to all floors.  One hour of domestic assistance is available each week and further assistance can be tailored to individual needs.  The Assisted Living flats are designed to enable wheelchair users to live independently.

The perfect environment for those in retirement, homes in our Assisted Living retirement development will each contain a bedroom, living room, kitchen and bathroom containing both a bath and separate level access shower.
