The plans for the build look fantastic and it’s hugely exciting that construction is now under way. I’m sure future homeowners will be very happy with the development and I look forward to seeing it when it’s complete.”
Liz Green, Regional Sales and Marketing Director from McCarthy Stone North East, added: “We are thrilled that Barnsley Central, Dan Jarvis, was able to take the time to visit our upcoming Barnsley development, and take a look at the plans for the Retirement Living apartments that will be available for future homeowners in early 2021.
“McCarthy Stone is committed to designing contemporary, flexible homes which allow people to live their retirement independently and to the full. It was great to be able to showcase the plans, and we are thoroughly looking forward to becoming an integrated part of the Barnsley community.”
