We’re pleased to share that planning has been submitted for the Frimley Extra Care Development, a visionary project by Sagehaus Living. Designed for residents aged 65+ with assessed care needs, the scheme will provide 49 extra care units centred around a vibrant community hub, all set within beautifully landscaped gardens. With a strong focus on biophilic design, the development integrates nature to enhance well-being, featuring communal gardens, walking paths, and light-filled spaces. Sustainability is at the heart of the project, using Modern Methods of Construction and renewable energy to reduce environmental impact. Loen House will be repurposed into a central hub, offering 24-hour care, a bistro, and communal spaces to foster connection and reduce isolation. This marks a significant step in delivering sustainable, high-quality housing for older residents, and we look forward to bringing this vision to life.
