Elsewhere the accommodation offers an especially roomy principal bedroom, generously sized second bedroom (both with super views), sensible wetroom and separate cloakroom. There is the benefit of an allocated parking space included in the sale.
Horizons was recently built by renowned multi-award winning retirement developers McCarthy and Stone and completed in 2017. Designed for retirement living plus, it has the latest in stylish living for the over 70's and includes a restaurant serving very affordable 3 course lunch time meals daily, homeowners' lounge, and communal areas (enjoying the best of the breathtaking views), landscaped gardens and a guest suite available for visiting family and friends ( a modest additional charge applies). For peace of mind, there is an Estate Manager and staff on site and 24-hour emergency call system provided via a personal pendant alarm and with call points in the bathroom.
