McCarthy Stone`s brand new retirement village `The Old Market Village’ is currently in construction and will feature bungalows and chalet bungalows known as `The Old Market Gardens’ and apartments known as ‘Market House’ all of which are set within a beautiful village green.
The Old Market Gardens bungalows will consist of 32 stunning retirement bungalows, exclusive to the over 65s and conveniently located in the historic town of Wimborne Minster, Dorset. There are 22 spacious two bedroom bungalows and an additional ten bungalows that are chalet style bungalows with three bedrooms. All McCarthy Stone retirement properties are designed to be a pleasure to live in, with high spec and quality fixtures and fittings throughout.
The bungalows will be centred around a lovely village green. Ideal for meetings, events and parties, the space is to be the beating heart of this retirement community. Just off the village green, you’ll find a wellness zone offering health and fitness studios, as well as a hair and beauty salon and a sociable communal lounge. There will be a bistro, so you’ll be able to meet your friends and family for a morning coffee or enjoy a long lingering lunch with a glass or two of wine. You’ll also find a pretty rural walking trail leading from the development.
