Enjoy retirement living in Wadebridge

If you’re over the age of 60 and looking to buy a new home, why not consider a retirement development to help you make the most of your retirement years? McCarthy & Stone, the UK’s leading retirement developer, has been building award winning developments for over 30 years and is currently offering retirement apartments at its Olde Market Court development in Wadebridge.
The development, which is located on Fair Park Road, offers 50 one and two bedroom retirement apartments, briefly comprising an open plan lounge and dining room, adjoining kitchen, one or two double bedrooms and a bathroom.
Each apartment at Olde Market Court benefits from a well-thought out design to help residents maintain independence in later life and feel secure in their own home. Design features include 24 hour emergency Careline call points, electrical sockets at a raised height to reduce bending, illuminated light switches, a video entry system, easy grip lever taps in the bathroom and kitchen and energy efficient heating.
Residents at Olde Market Court can also enjoy beautiful gardens, socialise and relax in the communal lounge and invite family or friends to stay in the development’s guest suite.
Aileen King, sales and marketing director for McCarthy & Stone South West, explains further: “To make the most of your retirement years you want peace of mind, comfort and independence. At our Olde Market Court development, residents can enjoy just that and more.
“However, there is a misconception that retirement developments are simply care homes and this really couldn’t be further from the truth! At Olde Market Court, everyone has their own front door so individuals can get on with their life without interference from others. Residents are not checked up on every day, they don’t have to have dinner at a set time and they can even bring their pet with them when they move or invite friends and family to stay in the development’s guest suite.
“However, there is additional support available, such as a 24 hour Careline and a house manager, for those people who want or need it – but this is their choice. The whole set up of Olde Market Court is to allow people to maintain their independence and really get the most from their retirement.”
Anyone interested in finding out more about the homes and lifestyle on offer at Olde Market Court can visit the show complex, open Tuesday to Saturday from 10.30am to 5.00pm, or log on to mccarthyandstone.co.uk.
