Elvingston Development Limited, in partnership with Morrison Community Care Group
Morrison Community Care Group (MCCG) take pleasure in providing a masterplan review of the site in Elvingston, East Lothian. The review is focussed around retirement and care home accommodation, which is informed following a report prepared by BNP Paribas Real Estate.
The intention for the subjects is to create Scotland's first luxury retirement village that will attract residents who wish to live in an exceptional setting, which will provide everything they will need in one location, that they and their family can enjoy.
The masterplan review aims to set out a number of uses that will compliment each other minded to the intended residents and occupiers that will live within the high quality setting, however to be inclusive to the wider East Lothian area, additional uses have also been included to create an environment for the public to also enjoy.
MCCG in collaboration with our design team have fully reviewed the report prepared by BNP Paribas Real Estate and thereafter set out to create a masterplan that explores the potential for the site.
The Morrison Community Care Group
Morrison Community Care Group was founded in 1989 when Mr Surjit Sokhi and Dr Caroline Sokhi purchased their first care home; Abbotsford House, a multi-award-winning facility in the heart of Bearsden, Scotland.
After many years of developing and operating our own care facilities, they have now fully transitioned into the development space, managing the process end-to-end for land agents, operators, and investors.
They have a unique insight into how to develop best-in-class care homes that help to tackle the growing shortage of care beds across the UK and Ireland.
They strive to develop luxurious and innovative home-like spaces where residents will experience the highest quality of life and personal care and make the investment and development of care facilities smooth, sustainable, and profitable for operators and investors alike.
Each of their developments adheres to the best practice guidelines of our regulators – The Care Inspectorate in Scotland, Care Quality Commission in England and The Regulation and Quality Improvement Authority in Ireland.
