Continuing our relationship with Ashford Borough Council we demolished an existing 1960s block of bedsits at East Stour Court and constructed 24 one and two bedroom affordable, rental apartments, specifically for over 55’s living.
The traditionally built apartments now benefit from PV panels, high levels of thermal performance and renewable energy sources, assisting with the drive to reduce fuel poverty.
The new development also provides luxury communal facilities, including lounge and dining areas, as well as a central atrium which creates a focal point to the building.
Externally the apartments are surrounded by landscaped gardens including a designated vegetable patch and a storage area for up to ten mobility scooters.
This is one of two schemes which have been run concurrently. The Poplars, which is a slightly larger scheme is due to complete by the end of the year.
Congratulations to the team at East Stour Court who have completed another great project!

The steel frame construction incorporates masonry walls and concrete floors. Externally the upper floor windows feature bespoke rain screen cladding panels with PV panels fixed to the roof.
The project has successfully achieved BREEAM Excellent rating and has provided many local employment opportunities.

All 15 will be prioritised for those with a connection to the village, such as family or work, to ensure the much-needed new homes are available for local people. The majority will be available for social rent, though three will be offered through shared ownership.

The works comprise the demolition of the existing surgery and the phased construction of a new 4 storey surgery comprising consulting and treatment rooms, pharmacy, reception and waiting rooms, administrative offices and welfare facilities.
The development will provide modern, fit for purpose and integrated primary care premises, serving more than 16,000 local patients.
External works will be undertaken in phases to allow the existing medical centre to continue practicing whilst partial construction of the building is undertaken and completed. On completion, the existing medical centre will relocate to allow the existing medical centre to be demolished and the remaining building built.
