Barnet
Moreton Close
A new build 53-bed dementia-friendly care home, all affordable rent, replaced outdated sheltered accommodation on the site. It provides much needed high quality, affordable accommodation for local older persons in the Borough.
Moreton Close
As part of Barnet Council’s review of its older peoples housing provision, existing sheltered buildings at Moreton Close have been demolished and have been replaced with a new extra care residential development to provide 53 self-contained one and two bedroom apartments. There are a range of associated and dementia-friendly facilities to support adults with additional care needs to live independently, including communal laundry, lounge and dining, with central catering to provide at least one hot meal each day if required, assisted bathroom, hairdressing and 24-hour care, as needed.
Large balconies, bright interiors, shared and private gardens make well-being a priority, the scheme feels like a high-quality, private development.
Previously a 33-bed sheltered housing scheme with a number of garages, the 1960’s building was demolished. It’s part of Barnet Council’s wider housing development programme, which will see more than 700 new homes built on council-owned land in the borough over a five year period.
The scheme had a number of challenges including restricted site access and section 278 agreement.
