Applegate House

Applegate House ‘Retirement Living’ development was constructed by award-winning McCarthy Stone to offer fantastic independent living opportunity for those aged over 60.

Living at Applegate House provides both Home Owners and family with the peace-of-mind provided by the day-to-day support of our house manager who oversees the smooth running of the development. All apartments are equipped with a 24-hour emergency call facility and sophisticated intercom system providing both an audio link to the main development entrance. Additionally there is also the excellent guest suite, widely used by visiting family and friends for which a small charge per night applies. The development enjoys excellent communal facilities including a super homeowners lounge, scooter store and landscaped gardens.

Applegate House has a wonderful friendly community feel, with a host of regular activities to enjoy thus making it really easy to meet new friends and to lead a busy and fulfilled life. Whilst there is something for everyone there is certainly no obligation to participate and home owners can ‘dip in and out’ of activities as they wish.

The Local Area

The development is well positioned for local amenities with a convenience store just metres away, a large Sainsbury’s within walking distance and a modern GP/health centre within a 5 minute walk. A public bus service stops directly outside the property with a regular service to the town centre as well as neighbouring towns and villages in the surrounding areas. The town centre itself is compact, making it easy to navigate and enjoy on foot. The historic Fore Street is located less than half a mile from the development and is the central shopping street for the town and a great place to browse and enjoy some retail therapy. For a larger selection of High street stores the Shires and Castle Place shopping centres can also be easily reached by public transport.
