Activity will shortly commence on a new 78 bed care home at the Carpenders Park Farm properties on Oxhey Lane, Watford. Released for sale back in 2016, the construction specialist Mick George Ltd will shortly begin earthworks for the project on behalf of Wildgoose Construction Ltd.

Comprising 78 bedrooms with en-suite facilities for the elderly, specifically for nursing and dementia care, with associated amenities that include car parking and a private landscaped residents garden, the Carpenders Care home is the latest development to be added to the Frontier Estates portfolio, with the scheme developed in conjunction with Baycroft Care Homes.

The care home will be built on the site of a former dairy; therefore its design takes cues from the existing agricultural vernacular to reminisce a series of barns and farm buildings. The scheme utilises glazed links, horizontal timber boarding and zinc dormers to provide a stunning design.

“Increasingly our services are being utilised towards the London region for varied contracting provisions. Earthworks is one of our more established offerings and I’m sure that recognised in the quality delivery of this project,” said Michael George, Contracts Director at Mick George Ltd.
