OWNERS INSIGHT

"Our Mother lived at Barton Court for over 30 years. She originally purchased Flat 1 Barton Court and was always very happy with the neighbours around her as they would often call in for a chat and keep an eye on her. She would often sit outside during the summer months with her friends and was very friendly with Joan who she eventually bought 5 Barton Court from (after Joan sadly passed away). She used to say how bright and roomy the flat was with enough space to watch the grandchildren play when they were over. The gardens have always been well maintained with nice colourful flower beds and the grass cut neatly. She always felt comfortable and safe which is why she was happy continuing to live there all these years."

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable.
