Description
Hermitage Court, a very rare opportunity to own a contemporary designed home set in 100 acres of outstanding natural beauty with spectacular open views across the Grade II historic park and garden.
Linden Homes and Thomas Homes are transforming the Fair Mile Hospital site into Hermitage Court, a flagship development of over 350 new homes.
Soha Housing is delighted to be able to offer several houses and apartments for purchase on a shared ownership basis. There will be 10 one & two bedroom apartments in the converted hospital together with 16 new build properties in the surrounding park and garden. The construction of the properties will be phased over 4 years with the first apartments being available early in 2012.
Through sensitive restoration, this flagship development will retain
the important heritage of the former hospital architecture whilst providing new homes and facilities in the beautiful surroundings.
The development will be able to offer residents a number of extra
facilities including a cricket pitch and pavilion, Chapel, Great Hall,
allotments and a fully equipped children's play area. There are plans to construct a boat house on the banks of the nearby River Thames.
