Charterpoint submits plans for new care homes

A Nottingham-based care home developer is looking to expand the supply of senior living accommodation with the submission of new planning applications.

Charterpoint has lodged proposals for two new 80-bed care homes, with sites identified in Gedling near Nottingham and to the north of Peterborough. 

Both schemes are designed as three-storey developments, offering purpose-built accommodation with a focus on resident wellbeing, accessibility and community living.

The Gedling plans relate to land off Lambley Lane, allocated for residential use in the local plan, and include 80 en-suite bedrooms alongside lounges, dining spaces, activity rooms, a café and a hairdresser. 

The scheme has been designed by KWL Architects.

Meanwhile in Peterborough, the proposed care home would feature similar facilities, with the addition of a cinema, bistro terrace, communal gardens and rooftop terraces, plus parking for staff and visitors. 

The development has been designed by Anotherkind Architects, with planning support from P&DG.

Adrian Goose, chief executive of Charterpoint, which Charterpoint specialises in senior living, mixed-use and sustainable housing developments, said: “As a specialist in the senior living and care home sector, Charterpoint is very pleased to have applied for planning permission for two additional care homes to add to our portfolio.

“We have a strong track record of developing best in class care homes – identifying areas where there is demand for such facilities, designing attractive buildings, and securing planning permission for the developments.

“We are delighted to have now submitted plans to Gedling Borough Council and to Peterborough City Council for two further care homes.”

Managing director Giles Nursey added: “Our proposed new care home is in an area of Peterborough which is experiencing significant and rapid local growth, where a care home would be a tremendous asset to the community.

“This care home would offer yet another best in class asset in an easily accessible and visible site, responding to this locally recognised need.”
