HOUSEBUILDER McCarthy and Stone is inviting Bolton retirees to explore the benefits of downsizing.

The company is hosting an exclusive launch event of its Lawn Court development in Harwood on Thursday, March 3.

Guests will be the first to find out about apartment specifications and pricing at the Retirement Living development – with presentations scheduled for 11am and 2pm at The Pennine Suite, Mercure Bolton Last Drop Village Hotel and Spa in Bolton.

Sales Executive, Jill McShane, Entitlement Advisor, Aleksandra Clayton, and specialist removal company, House to Home, will also be on hand throughout the day to answer any questions, enabling potential purchasers to make the move and start their retirement as smoothly as possible.

Currently under construction and available to reserve off plan, this attractive development will comprise a stylish collection of 28 apartments for the over 60s, and will welcome its first homeowners in summer 2016.

Retirees at the new Longsight Lane development will benefit from easy access to all essential amenities, as well as excellent public transport links to both the surrounding areas and further afield.

Fiona Brooks, Regional Sales and Marketing Director for McCarthy and Stone, said: “Our new Retirement Living development in Harwood has been designed to offer our future homeowners the very best in independent living within a safe and secure environment, with the opportunity to benefit from companionship when they want it and privacy and assistance when they need it. With interest levels in Lawn Court so high, we would encourage anyone keen to get a first look at what it has to offer to book a place in advance, or risk disappointment.”

When complete, facilities at the development will include a lounge, ideal for socialising with friends, landscaped gardens in which to relax and a convenient guest suite should homeowners have friends or relatives to stay. The development will also benefit from a House Manager, who will ensure the smooth running of the development, a secure entrance system, plus 24-hour emergency call points for added peace of mind.
