Try your new home before you buy in Hoylake

Deciding to move from your family home to a purpose built retirement apartment can be quite a daunting experience. However, at McCarthy & Stone’s Sandbanks development in Hoylake, potential purchasers can now test drive an apartment without obligation following the introduction of a new ‘Try Before You Buy’ scheme.

Through the initiative, anyone considering purchasing an apartment at Sandbanks will be able to stay in a beautifully furnished one bedroom show apartment for up to two nights free of charge.

For two days they can call the apartment ‘home’, make use of all the facilities at the development, meet the house manager, and other residents in the communal lounge, and enjoy the garden. Visitors can also get a feel for the local area and work out the proximity to local shops and transport links.

Fiona Brooks, Regional Sales and Marketing Manager for McCarthy & Stone, explains: “Living in a McCarthy & Stone retirement property offers many unique benefits that can only be appreciated by experiencing the lifestyle first hand. Try Before You Buy is an easy-to-use and friendly service that enables people to live in one of our apartments and see for themselves without any obligation.”

McCarthy & Stone’s Sandbanks development is designed exclusively for people over the age of 60 who want a manageable and secure home that enables them to maintain their independence. Each apartment is private and self-contained and includes a number of thoughtful design features including 24-hour emergency Careline call points, electrical sockets at a raised height to reduce bending, illuminated light switches, a security entry system, easy grip lever taps in the bathroom and kitchen and energy efficient heating.

Sandbanks offers 37 one and two bedroom apartments just 300 yards from the popular sea front and 250 yards from Market Street with its charming Victorian Shop verandahs.
