The Property
Arden House is a large Edwardian detached house, set
amongst other family homes. The property has been a
nursing home since 1946 and so is well known within
the local neighbourhood.
The property was sympathetically extended and
enhanced in the early 1990’s to provide the current
level of accommodation. All new rooms were designed
to be above and beyond the regulations of the day
for both size and layout.
A large courtyard has been designed with
raised beds and an easy sloped path for
residents’ access. The garden is mainly laid
to lawn, shaded in part by some mature
trees, offering both residents and their
families the chance for some relaxation in
the fresh air. Gazebo’s are available in the
height of summer to offer shade to those
less mobile.
With a recently received planning approval,
the Home is looking to extend the lounge by
almost a third. This will give both
residents and their families far more space
for our many social events and activities
and of course, more privacy for quiet family
visits.
