Over 60s urged to move fast as new retirement living apartments go on sale in Whitby

Retirees looking to downsize and live their retirement to the full are being invited to be amongst the first to secure their dream home at the new McCarthy Stone Retirement Living development on The Garth, Whitby.

The coastal development is officially open in July for exclusive viewings where retirees can tour the show apartments and take a peek at the stunning landscaped gardens. Appointments are available from July 16th on Tuesday to Saturday, from 11am to 4pm.

Those who wish to attend must reserve a place in advance by calling 0800 882 1829.

This comes as the UK’s leading manager and developer of retirement communities has announced that apartments at Scoresby View are now available to reserve off-plan, with construction set to complete later this year.

For peace of mind, a House Manager will be on-site during office hours to oversee the day-to-day running of the development, with 24/7 emergency call points and door camera entry in place to provide further reassurance.
