Walter House is a Retirement Living development for the over 60's based in the centre of Chelmsford. Once complete, there will be 45 one and two bedroom apartments which will benefit from landscaped gardens, a communal lounge for residents, modern security systems including intruder alarms, a camera entry system, and fire detection equipment throughout the development. Plus an on-site house manager all ensure your safety, security and comfort.
Every one of the high-quality apartments will include a fitted kitchen complete with oven, hob, and hood, and double-glazed windows to keep you warm and ensure your apartment is energy efficient. With only 45 apartments for the over 60s, you can be sure that you’ll be part of a close-knit and friendly community.
At Walter House you’ll enjoy access to all of the facilities on the complex, including landscaped gardens, a spacious and sociable communal lounge and a Guest Suite which visitors can use when staying overnight.
McCarthy & Stone Management Services (MSMS) are responsible for looking after our Lifestyle Living and Retirement Living developments, the grounds and services that together make up your new home.
MSMS provide and maintain the emergency-call system, intruder alarm and door camera entry. They also take care of gardening and general upkeep of the outside of the development and all shared areas.
In our Retirement Living schemes, these services include a friendly House Manager, on hand during office hours in the week (which may vary), to take care of the day-to-day running of the development. They can also arrange social events, and our residents choose whether or not to get involved with these.
