NEW BUILD 14 BED NURSING HOME
The Brief
To modernise and enlarge an existing nursing home already owned by our clients.
The Project
After initial surveys revealed that the existing building was in a dangerous condition it was agreed to demolish it and build a new unit.
Despite strict planning conditions which only allowed a single storey building, the redesign allowed the ceiling heights to be increased into the roof, and five bedrooms were added by extending to one side of the garden, making a total of 14 beds. The unit is split into six male and eight female bedrooms each unit having its own separate entrance.
