Retirement Housing scheme takes shape in North Stoneham
Summergate Lodge, a new Retirement Living development in Eastleigh, moved one step closer to completion as the build reached its highest point.
Housing 21’s latest Retirement Living scheme has been developed in partnership with the Council. Summergate Lodge will provide much needed accommodation for local people over the age of 65. The development will offer 26 one and two bedroom apartments for rent and shared ownership. It has been designed to promote independent living in a community setting. As well as a Court Manager on site during the week, residents will benefit from a range of on-site facilities, including communal lounge and gardens for residents and their guests to enjoy.
Cllr Tina Campbell, Cabinet Lead for Social Policy said, “I am delighted to see this new retirement housing scheme which will provide independent living for our older residents and provides another important part of the evolving community at North Stoneham. The new flats will provide affordable homes for rent and shared ownership.”
Paul Tewksbury, Head of Retirement Living (South region) at Housing 21 said: “We are delighted to reach this important milestone in the development of Summergate Lodge. The scheme will provide much needed homes for older people in the area.”
Summergate Lodge is set to open in Summer 2021 and the scheme’s show home will be open from Spring 2021. Anyone interested in buying or renting an apartment should contact [email protected] or 0345 608 4021
