As our business grows from strength to strength, we always keep a keen eye out for suitable land to build our care homes. If you have a site in mind, please do get in touch.

What we look for

The types of sites we are particularly interested in are those where there could be an opportunity to get planning permission for a care home accommodating approximately 50 to 60 beds. The gross building area should be between 2,500 to 3,000 square metres, on sites from 0.75 to 1 acre. We are happy to consider sites that house existing buildings but not those that are listed. This is due to the fact we would want to demolish in order to build purpose-built facilities.

The right location

We seek sites in good locations around London and within the Home Counties. We give great consideration to sites in:

  • Built-up residential areas
  • Rural locations which have close proximity to main residential areas
  • Main road frontage sites on approaches into built-up areas or within city centres.

What we offer

Our reputation and track record speaks for itself. As a care home group that operates its own homes, we understand the marketplace better than most developers. You would have the peace of mind that we make sound decisions. And thanks to our flat board structure, we have the luxury of making these decisions very quickly.

If you are not on a retainer, then we pay generous introductory fees on completion of the transaction. You would have direct access to Property Director Mike Hirsch, who is directly responsible for land acquisitions and you would not have to liaise through any other parties.

Our homes provide employment for more than 50 people in the local area. Our sites are quiet and are not likely to disturb or interfere with surrounding neighbours. Our residential designs are not controversial and any traffic generation will be on a very low scale.
