About
Enjoy all of the benefits of a McCarthy & Stone retirement community with our affordable and flexible assured periodic tenancies, so you can rent your property for as long as you want.
Renting in retirement provides a wealth of benefits including one monthly fee, removing any worries you may have about the upkeep of your property and the grounds.
You can move in at your pace, with some customer moving within just a couple of weeks and settle in to your new home with minimum fuss.
Don’t miss your chance to snap up one of the final ground-floor apartments at the stunning Jacob Place development in Saffron Walden.
Apartment 7 is a beautifully designed one-bedroom home that combines style, comfort, and peace of mind in one perfect package.
Being on the ground floor, it comes with that all-important outdoor space – imagine stepping outside with your morning coffee or unwinding in the sunshine with a good book right on your doorstep.
Built by award-winning McCarthy & Stone, this private retirement apartment is thoughtfully designed for easy, low-maintenance living, with a range of added safety features so you can relax and enjoy every moment.
Stylish, secure, and perfectly positioned, Apartment 7 is a rare opportunity to enjoy a vibrant new lifestyle in a welcoming community – but with limited ground-floor homes remaining, it won’t be available for long.
