Construction work has been completed on a new extra care development in Grimsby.
Esh Construction's commercial build division has handed over the new building, with the first residents set to move into their new apartments in the coming weeks.
Known as Burchester Court, the three-storey building comprises one and two-bedroom apartments, all with accessible and open plan living space and substantial bedrooms. Each apartment boasts a private front door, a contemporary kitchen and a stylish bathroom wet floor with decorative level access shower area. A full height window in the main living area forms the 'heart' of the apartment – an ideal space for connecting with family and friends.
The scheme is the first extra care development in Grimsby for Living Plus, which is part of the Places for People Group, and has been delivered in partnership with Morgan Sindall Later Living, North East Lincolnshire CCG and Homes England.
As an independent living option for local residents over-55 who have care and support needs, or those who may need them in the future, residents will benefit from 24-hour onsite care, the Garden City café, a hair and beauty salon, lounges and gardens for socialising, as well as a guest suite for family or friends to stay overnight. It is also in close proximity to much loved community hub, Centre One.
Stuart Leslie, Divisional Director at Esh Construction, said: "We are proud to have delivered this fantastic new extra care facility in Grimsby, providing high quality and much-needed new homes to enable people to live independently with onsite care and support. It has been a pleasure to work with the partners on this scheme and we would like to thank the team for working in true collaboration to overcome the difficulties faced as a result of these unprecedented times."
