The site
The proposal site is located at land on the corner of Palmers Field Avenue, Chichester, which forms part of Graylingwell Park.
Draft proposals
McCarthy & Stone’s initial plans propose to develop the site with Retirement Living Plus (Extra Care) apartments, landscaped gardens and on-site car parking. The proposals include:
- A high-quality Extra Care development featuring approximately 60 one and two bedroom apartments for private sale;
- One building of three and four storeys in height, with the middle portion of the development reaching four storeys, stepping down to three storeys to respect the adjacent properties;
- Parking for 43 cars, reflective of the lower car usage associated with this type of development;
- A single vehicular access from Palmers Field Avenue, as approved in the extant planning application;
- Tailored communal facilities, including a club lounge, guest suite, a counter-service Bistro and landscaped gardens;
- A mixed palette of materials, including red and grey brick, grey render, grey uPVC window frames and balconies;
- A contemporary design, reflective of the varied vernacular of the wider Graylingwell Park development;
- Space for internal mobility scooter storage with charging points, reflecting the site’s sustainable location; and,
- New attractive landscaping, creating a pleasant residential environment.
