The Consultation

Our Proposal

We have recently acquired an interest in the land at 3 – 15 The Broadway, Haywards Heath and are working up proposals for the site’s redevelopment to provide new, specialist retirement accommodation, together with landscaping, indoor communal facilities, on-site car parking, and the reprovision of commercial units on the ground floor.

Our plans for a new, vibrant retirement community that will provide choice for older people in the local area comprise:

  • A high-quality Retirement Living development, featuring approximately 37 one-and two- bedroom apartments for private sale, part-rent part-buy or rental

    Proposed ground floor plan
  • Tailored shared facilities within the building, including a communal lounge with a kitchenette and a hotel-style guest suite
  • New commercial space at ground floor level, situated below part of the residential accommodation above and reflecting the wider Haywards Heath town centre vernacular
  • One ‘T’-shaped building that ranges between three and four storeys in height, reflecting the scale of surrounding buildings and forming a defined frontage along The Broadway
  • A varied palette of contemporary materials used in a traditional way, to ensure the proposals respond and reflect the local area
  • Traditional features such as herringbone and horizontal bands of vertical brickwork, as well as stone banding details
  • Parking for 27 cars, including the provision of electric charging points and disabled bays for homeowners, staff and visitors
  • Space for internal cycle and mobility scooter storage with charging points, reflecting the site’s sustainable location
  • Attractive landscaped outdoor spaces, including a communal garden area and a roof garden terrace to the rear of the building, as well as the retention and enhancement of the majority of trees and vegetation on-site to create a pleasant residential environment

We have carefully considered our design for the site, to breathe life into this brownfield site. Our proposals present a valuable opportunity to bring forward new, modern, flexible commercial space alongside a specialist retirement community in this part of Haywards Heath, that provides genuine choice for older people so that they can continue to live locally in a home that meets their needs and aspirations in their later years.
