RESIDENTS are being given the first glimpse of what the new £10.5m retirement living scheme in Stourport will look like.

Newly-released artists’ impressions show the entrance design to Bromford’s L-shaped development which will feature 60 high-quality retirement living apartments for over 55s.

The images also show the approach to the scheme, ample car parking and the stunning inside space for eating, drinking, chatting or relaxing.

Construction work is well underway at the multi-million pound scheme which is being built on land where Tan Lane Infants School, and later Stourport First School, stood for decades from 1897. The original school building is being renovated and converted into three apartments as part of the development.

Penny Downing, Bromford’s sales and marketing director, said: “We are thrilled to be able to unveil our vision for School Gardens – a modern and stylish development which is completely benefitting of the local area and which we hope will create a vibrant and lively place for residents and the wider community to enjoy.

“Our retirement living homes are increasingly popular as they offer customers the opportunity to live in a diverse community where they can really retain their independence; safe I the knowledge that support is available if they need it.”

The range of one or two bedroom apartments will include options for rent or purchase. There will also be a café bistro, lounge, activity studio, gym and hair and beauty salon.

Residents can head to Hallmark Hotel, in Hartlebury Road, on Friday, November 18, between 2pm and 4pm to learn more about the development.
