Show more "Following extensive engagement with the planning team at Hertsmere Borough Council, local stakeholders and the community, Thrive Living by Retirement Villages Group, has been granted approval to develop an integrated retirement community in Elstree.The design includes five villa-style apartment blocks positioned to respond to the site’s steep topography and heritage context. These are arranged around a plaza that connects to shared amenities including a café, multi-purpose hall, wellness centre and walking routes into the surrounding countryside. Additional single-storey cottages are proposed along the northern boundary, with views across the Aldenham Plain.
The project is intended to combine social and environmental sustainability in its design and layout. Targeted at residents aged 65 and over, it seeks to promote connection to nature and community interaction, with a central landscaped square forming the focal point of the site. The square is arranged around a mature oak tree that will be retained and used to orient surrounding buildings, pedestrian routes and shared spaces." Show less
