**Summary**
Completed by award - winning developers McCarthy Stone in 2015, Barnhill Court
occupies an excellent position - an easy 10 - minute level walk to the thriving
and historic Chipping Sodbury High Street with its origins dating back to the
12th Century. In addition, a Waitrose supermarket is very close by with easy
pedestrian access.
This is a ‘Retirement Living Plus’ development providing private apartments
specifically for those over 70 years of age and is designed for independent
living with the peace - of - mind provided by the day - to - day support of our
excellent staff and Estate Manager who oversee the smooth running of the

and budgets. All apartments are equipped with a 24 - hour emergency call
facility and sophisticated intercom system providing both a visual and verbal

The development boasts a host of facilities for the enjoyment of home owners,
not least of which is the beautiful communal lounge which is the hub of social
activities. There is also a restaurant with a fantastic, varied daily table -
service lunch. In addition, there are lifts serving all floors, mobility
