The site
The proposal site is located at the former Greenfield School, Brooklyn Road, Woking.
Draft proposals
Ashill and McCarthy & Stone’s initial plans propose to redevelop the site with 49 Retirement Living Plus (Extra Care) apartments for private sale, part-rent part-buy and rent, landscaped gardens and on-site car parking. The plans include:
- Tailored shared facilities within the building, including a bistro, communal lounge, wellness suite, and a hotel-style guest suite for when friends and family come to stay
- One building of four storeys in height, stepping down to three-storeys towards the rear of the site to respect the neighbouring properties
- A varied palette of traditional materials used in a contemporary way
- Parking for 28 cars, reflective of the site’s sustainable location associated with this type of development, including disabled, visitor and electric parking spaces at the rear of the building
- 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 the retention and enhancement of the majority of trees on-site to create a pleasant residential environment
