former Ravensmount Care Home provides the opportunity to create a high-quality scheme of 8

the east.
DESCRIPTION
The site is comprised of a former 35 bed care home that has been granted full planning
permission to convert into 8 large apartments. The building is grand period building of stone
construction with pitched slate tile roof and various large windows providing countryside views.
The building extends to approximately 1,051 sq m (11,313 sq ft).
PLANNING
Full planning permission has been granted to convert the building into 8 large apartments which
will range between 861 and 1,421 sq ft. The ground floor will be comprised of 3 x Three
bedroom apartments with communal entrance and lift to the upper floors. The first floor will
comprise 1 x One bedroom apartment and 2 x 3 bedroom apartments whilst the second floor
will comprise 2 x Two bedroom apartments. Each of the apartments will benefit from spacious
open plan kitchen / living areas, family bathrooms and some bedrooms benefitting from en-

Set back on a site of just over 0.7 of an acre, is this former Residential Care Home with 35 bedrooms. The property built in stone under a pitched slate roof, with a turreted bay extension has a dominant elevation and position on the west side of the Alnmouth Road, with tremendous views to the south. The A1068 leads from Alnwick to Alnmouth and is a prime east arterial access from the town centre. The location of the house where the building is surrounded by high quality homes, and the whole of the site undoubtedly creates a magnificent development opportunity.
