Challenge
Repurposing an existing space
Calcinotto are working with the developers, Frontier Estates, for the development of a 64-bed care homes with six assisted living houses on land at The Cowplain School in Waterlooville, along with a separate application for the improvement of drainage on the playing fields.
Solution
Transforming the landscape into tranquility
The proposed care home, allocated on the north-east corner of the playing fields, includes 64 bedrooms with en suite bathrooms, associated amenity facilities as well as private residents’ gardens. In addition to the care home, there will be four semi-detached and two detached assisted living homes on an adjacent site. Notably, the scheme will address the identified local need for elderly accommodation and provide the opportunity for local residents to remain living locally when their care needs increase.
As outlined by the council ‘The proposal seeks to develop a site in a sustainable and sought-after location to deliver considerable visual, amenity and land quality benefits and enhance the ongoing environmental sustainability of the surrounding area.’
