Construction firm GRAHAM has completed work on Royal London Asset Management's £44 million Wycliffe Retirement Village in Horsley Green.
The retirement village that will be operated by Audley Group includes 156 accessible later living apartments, distributed across five residential blocks within a 25-acre site.
GRAHAM has also completed a clubhouse which will sit at the centre of the new community. The clubhouse offers communal amenities such as reception services, a restaurant, a bar and bistro, a swimming pool, treatment rooms and a designated area for hobbies. The landscape also features a kitchen garden, a bowling green, and safe walking trails.
Guy Salazar-Lewis, Projects Director at GRAHAM, said: "We have enjoyed a longstanding collaboration with Audley, spanning several years, on various retirement villages located in Wycliffe Park, Scarcroft, and Cobham. These establishments boast an exceptional array of amenities, reflecting our commitment to creating a thriving community for older people."
Alan Renshall, Development Project Manager at Audley Group, stated: "Wycliffe Park is a beautiful village and one that we are incredibly proud to have recently opened. The quality of the 156 new properties is testament to the work of GRAHAM Construction who delivered this village for us. Demand for integrated retirement living options is as strong as ever so it’s essential we continue to build and operate villages that are designed so people can live better, for longer, by focusing on health and wellness in a holistic way. That's exactly what we have at our 19 villages across the country."
GRAHAM is currently delivering over £100 million worth of work for Audley across three different locations, including the recently completed Wycliffe Retirement Village, the Cobham Retirement Village, which finished earlier this year, and the upcoming Scarcroft Park, which is scheduled for completion in 2024.
These developments are funded through a joint venture with the real estate division of Schroders and Octopus Real Estate, a prominent specialist healthcare real estate investor.
