Show more "A warm welcome awaits you at Stuart Court, for those aged 50 and over who still wish to live independently in their own home. These properties are easy to maintain and offer tenants the safety of living in a secure environment, whilst retaining their independent lifestyle.You can relax, knowing that there’s a Court Coordinator on site part time as well as the added benefit of having security features such as a 24 hour emergency call system.
There’s no need to worry about maintenance costs either as the service charge covers the cost of all external maintenance, gardening, window cleaning and energy costs of the communal areas.
The community spirit within Stuart Court is lively with plenty of social activities on offer, including bingo nights twice a week, a monthly coffee morning fundraising for tenants’ funds, bus trips in the summer, film nights in the lounge and Christmas and Burns Night entertainment. With so much to enjoy in Edinburgh, Stuart Court is the perfect place to enjoy later life." Show less
