Pym Court

Pym Court is a stunning McCarthy Stone development, having been completed in 2022. It allows Homeowners to live independently with support to suit their needs. The development has staff on-site 24-hours a day, 365 days a year, so help is always available in case of emergency. Homeowners also benefit from tailor-made support packages and some domestic assistance each week. You’ll be able to decide which chores you want taken care of, so you’ll have more time to do the things you love - but, you’ll still be able to keep your independence and make use of the stunning landscaped gardens.

There are a variety of regular activities to choose from including; coffee mornings, film nights and themed events. Whilst there is something for everyone there is certainly no obligation to participate and home owners can ‘dip in and out’ of activities or quite naturally, remain as private as they wish.

This is because, on the development, you’ll find everything you could possibly need to enjoy a full and active retirement. This includes a bistro and a communal lounge that regularly hosts events. There is also a guest suite for when family and friends come to stay, and pets are more than welcome.

The Local Area

Topsham is a coastal and affluent suburb of Exeter that sits alongside the Exe estuary, which is famous for its sailing and water sports. It was once a thriving port and shipbuilding centre, and today there’s still a charming passenger ferry that transports passengers across the Exe, as well as plenty of waterside pubs where you can stop for lunch. You can even take long or short cruises where you can discover the wildlife of the Exe estuary or visit Exmouth’s sandy beaches.
Topsham is a desirable and quirky town that boasts a selection of independent retailers. Within Topsham, there’s a popular antiques centre, an authentic Sunday market and plenty of local stores where the owners are incredibly passionate about their goods.
Within the town, there’s also a collection of distinctive buildings, including 17th century merchant houses that sit along The Strand. One of these is the Topsham Museum, where a number of interesting exhibitions are held.
If you like to get out and explore further afield, then you’ll be pleased to know that Pym Court is located on a main bus route, with bus stops immediately outside the development. The development is also close to Topsham railway station, which sits on the Avocet Line. All trains from Exmouth to Exeter St David’s stop at Topsham, and there’s a half-hourly daytime service in each direction.

Pym Court is located on Exeter Road in the heart of Topsham, with a great range of local amenities close by. An Aldi supermarket is just 0.3 miles away, and you’ll be able to reach a great range of bars and restaurants if you head 0.2 miles in the other direction.

There’s plenty to keep you busy in Topsham. Topsham Recreation Ground is just 0.3 miles away from Pym Court and Topsham Swimming Pool is 0.5 miles away.
