Bill and Kath Harvey describe themselves young at heart, and it is precisely because they love their freedom that McCarthy & Stone's Webb Court in Drury Lane, Stourbridge, suits them so well.
Webb Court is specially designed for people aged 60 and over and offers a balance between security and independence.
Kath, 67, said: "It was always a long term plan of ours to buy a McCarthy & Stone apartment and when I had an accident and couldn't get up the stairs in our three-bedroom semi in Quarry Bank we thought, let's do it sooner rather than later.
"It's the best move we've ever made. I'm a sociable person and I love the gatherings with the other residents in the central lounge.
"But the best thing is definitely the freedom. We don't have to worry about the garden any more, and Bill has more time for his golf, walking and football matches.
"Security is not a problem either - we've never had so many holidays."
Kath and Bill have a one-bedroom retirement apartment at Webb Court, which, like all the apartments at the developoment is linked to a 24-hour Careline system and TV camera surveillance at the main entrance.
Shared facilities include a central lounge, a lift to all floors, landscaped garden, a guest suite and a laundry room.
Prices start from £136,450 for a one-bedroom flat and from £163,950 for two bedrooms.
To view the show apartments at Webb Court drop into the sales office which is open daily between 10.30am and 5.00pm or call Joan Priest or Carole Penlington on 01384 376847.
