Retirement Developments

FB Architecture have worked for leading Retirement Housebuilder McCarthy & Stone Retirement Lifestyles Ltd designing a number of high quality specialist residential developments, including Retirement Living and Assisted Living developments.

We have also been involved on numerous sites at feasibility stage developing sketch schemes to assess the viability of sites and have successfully supported a number of schemes through Planning Enquiries.

 

   

Stone Lane, Kinver

FB Architecture produced an amended design based on a previous proposal produced by McCarthy & Stone to secure planning permission for this site in a Conservation Area, and went on to develop construction information. The building was completed in spring 2016


 

   

Holt Road, Cromer

Designed by Martin Mence for McCarthy & Stone, the development is on a sensitive site in the Conservation Area and replaced a locally listed police station and courthouse building. FB Architecture represented the scheme at a successful planning appeal and went on to produce construction information. The building was completed in summer 2016


 

   

Norfolk Road, Edgbaston

FB Architecture designed this Assisted Living development for McCarthy & Stone which obtained planning approval in July 2016 and is currently on site


 

   

Enderby Road, Blaby

FB Architecture designed this Retirement Living development, optimising the use of a constrained site whilst retaining the existing mature trees and landscape. Construction commences in summer 2016 due for completion in 2017


 

   

Glenhills Court, Glen Parva

Designed by Martin Mence the development retained the former County Arms PH, a 1930's modernist / Art Deco building and local landmark. The develoment of 55 Assisted Living apartments is designed in a modern style to compliment the existing building.


The building's layout provides a south facing entrance courtyard in the centre of the site and also makes best advantage of its canal-side garden setting. FB Architecture developed construction drawings and worked with McCarthy & Stone to completion of the building in 2015
