Work has begun on a new £13.5million development which will see 64 “independent later living” apartments built in Lichfield city centre.
The Quonians Yard scheme by Lifestory Pegasus began with a ceremony attended by the Mayor of Lichfield, Cllr Robert Yardley.
Designed by Birmingham architects Gould Singleton, the development will be made up of three buildings with a. mixture of one and two-bedroom apartments.
Known as Pegasus Lichfield Bonds, the scheme will also include a communal lounge and garden, patio seating areas and a social kitchen.
Regional managing director Mike Gill said:
“The milestone of breaking ground on the site forms part of our wider ambition to create more high-quality homes for independent later living across the UK.
“Our passion is creating communities which enable and empower our customers to live their fullest lives, regardless of their age or life stage.
“As our second development in Lichfield, we look forward to bringing forward another social community with wellbeing at its heart, and Pegasus Lichfield Bonds will provide much needed, high quality later-living homes in the community.
“We’re confident that this is the perfect space for those seeking their next chapter, and I look forward to seeing further progress made on this exciting development.”
