Contingency Fund - It is a specific fund kept in the development's own bank account. It is held in trust and used only on the maintenance of that development and cannot be accessed by McCarthy Stone for its own purposes. It is there to benefit all residents and is used to pay for the replacement of carpets and furniture in the shared areas as well as longer term repairs like roofs, window frames and lifts.

We believe it is the best way to protect residents from unexpected costs like a major refurbishment or structural repairs.

The service charge includes a small contribution to the contingency fund, but to keep it to a minimum, the fund is 'topped up' by a one-off charge of 1% of the resale price upon the sale of the apartment.

Residents' Parking (Permit Scheme) - Parking is by allocated space subject to availability. The fee is currently £250 per annum.. Permits are available on a first come, first served basis. Please check with the House Manager on site for availability.
