A LAID-BACK LIFESTYLE IN A GLORIOUS SETTING

With a south facing, wrap around balcony, decadent master suite and grand entrance lobby the mansion style apartment at The Residence at Green Walk, Standish is a very special property.

Created from the estate’s original Art Deco hospital wing it offers a commanding view out over the mature woodland which features rare and ancient species collected by the estate’s original owner.

Designed as a grand mansion style apartment this is single level living at its finest. Offering large rooms, superior specification and thoughtful design touches to make for a luxurious laid-back lifestyle.

Group Sales Manager Gavin Pearce, said: “For someone wanting the ease of single level living, this has to be the ultimate opportunity. The private entrance, grand hallway and the sheer amount of space offered is exceptional.

“The wrap around balcony with its original curved balustrade transforms not just the main living space but also the master bedroom. The ability to open the large sliding doors and step out to take in the magnificent setting makes this property unique.”

Offering 1,600 sq ft of space the apartment has an open plan living/dining area with high specification kitchen with a breakfast bar.

The master suite has a large dressing area and sumptuous en-suite and there are two more double bedrooms and a house bathroom.

A separate study allows for a dedicated working from home space and it also boasts a practical utility and plenty of storage.

The property also comes with two dedicated parking spaces.

Gavin added: “Green Walk is five minutes from Stonehouse which has direct rail connections to London, it is a short drive to Stroud where independent shops and restaurants abound and there are a host of parks and nature trails right from the front door.

“It would be the perfect home for someone maybe looking to downsize or who has other properties around the world.

“We all love to visit Green Walk, just going through the gates up the sweeping drive makes you smile and it changes with the seasons. I would urge anyone looking for a luxurious yet unique property to book an appointment to visit.”

Plans to be Revealed for Legacy site in York

PLANS TO BE REVEALED FOR LEGACY SITE IN YORK

After detailed discussions with Historic England, York City Council and stakeholders we can now share detailed proposals for The Heslington Road Estate in York.

Consultation Open Days will be held at the site next week and we look forward to getting people’s feedback and views.

The 13-acre estate was integral to the pioneering work of The Retreat, established in 1796 by Quaker William Tuke, who believed physical and mental health were linked and created a place where the grounds offered recreation facilities to support mental health care.

It was brought to market when in-patient services on the site ceased and new centres of excellence for outpatients established in other locations in addition to Heslington Road.

Redevelopment of the buildings to create a high quality residential scheme is the most appropriate way of securing the long-term future of these significant buildings and the wider site.

PJ Livesey board director, James Woodmansee, said: “Ideas have been developed in consultation with heritage experts and stakeholders over the last 10 months and we are now at a stage where we can share them with neighbours and the wider community.

“We believe this is a unique opportunity to create a really special residential scheme, preserving the legacy of William Tuke, not just with the buildings but with the grounds.

“We are very keen to get feedback on our plans and look forward to hearing people’s views as we move forward with proposals.”

The proposals in brief:

• Conversion of the main hospital complex into 65-75 homes
• Conversion of Garrow Hill House into 6-8 homes
• Conversion of Home Farm into 2-5 homes
• Conversion of Spring Lodge, East Villa and Garrow Hill Coach House into individual homes
• The conversion of the former Recreation Hall to a residents’ Club Room that could also be used by the community
• Construction of 10-20 new build, family homes
• Extensive landscape restoration throughout the site and a dedicated Heritage Trail
