Archstone Lifestyle Homes was founded in 1996 by Bill Stone, Chairman, and Martin Young, Chief Executive, who recognised a growing need for homes that would suit the changing lifestyles of those reaching their ‘leisure years.’

Archstone, a leader in retirement housing, designs its retirement homes to appeal to active over 55s who wish to live life to the full, free from the burdens of maintenance normally associated with home ownership.

The company’s portfolio of retirement homes in the South of England includes retirement apartments and cottage-style houses created in courtyard or mews-style arrangements with beautifully landscaped communal gardens.

On each retirement homes development, cottages and their private rear gardens are sold on a freehold basis and communal parts are retained by Archstone and managed by an appointed management company, making retirement living easy!.

From the outset, Bill, Martin and our team at Archstone have shared a passion for intelligent architectural and interior design and a commitment to the highest standards of construction. We firmly believe that the retirement years provide a whole range of opportunities: the chance to enjoy family, friends and leisure pursuits, both old and new. We believe that a new home should be an important part of that new life and in order to fulfil our mission to create outstanding ‘leisure years’ homes for a better way of life, our business has been built on our commitment to delivering value, quality and service.
