Summary - Available exclusively for those aged 70 and over, Sycamore Court is a thoughtfully designed development of 54 one and two-bedroom retirement apartments, enjoying stunning views towards Scarborough Castle and the surrounding coastline – truly one of the area’s most picturesque settings.
The development offers excellent security and peace of mind, with 24-hour onsite staff, 365 days a year. Facilities include an onsite bistro serving freshly prepared meals and snacks, plus one hour of domestic assistance each week. Lift access throughout makes it easy to get around, and residents can enjoy a welcoming social lounge, a bright sun room with balcony, and a comfortable guest suite for visiting friends or family. Outside, a private car park is available to the rear of the property.
Each apartment is spacious, light, and designed for easy living. The fully fitted kitchens feature an integrated fridge/freezer, oven with ceramic hob, and stainless steel sink. Living rooms are bright and airy, offering a relaxing retreat, while the bedrooms benefit from walk-in wardrobes and quality fitted carpets. The level-access shower rooms are fully tiled and equipped with safety features such as easy-grip rails and non-slip flooring for added reassurance.
Local Area - Conveniently located, the development is just a mile from a Tesco supermarket, with bus stops only 500 yards away offering regular services to the town centre, train station, and beyond. Scarborough Train Station provides direct connections to York and nearby towns, while excellent road links via the A64 to York and Leeds, the A165 to Bridlington, and the A171 to Whitby make travelling by car straightforward.
Scarborough offers a wealth of things to see and do. Once known primarily as a seaside resort, it now boasts a vibrant cultural scene, with live theatres, creative arts centres, and museums. Annual highlights include the Scarborough Jazz Festival at the historic Scarborough Spa each September, and Seafest, a lively celebration of folk music, sea shanties, and local art along the harbour.
The area’s beaches are stunning year-round. South Sands features an outer harbour for pleasure boats and yachts, with trips available around the bay. To the north lies the breathtaking North York Moors National Park, home to diverse wildlife, while to the south you can visit the world-famous Bempton Cliffs to see puffins, gannets, and spectacular sea views.

The hall is fitted with illuminated light switches, a smoke detector, and a secure door entry system with intercom. Doors lead from the hallway to the lounge, bedrooms and shower room.
