A NEW retirement living development in Brighouse has reached a key stage in its construction as show apartments have been launched.

Earlier this year Burghley Retirement Living named the complex on Elmwood Drive in honour of Alderman William Smith, the first mayor of the town.

Now people have the chance to see how the finished Alderman Lodge development will look, with one and two-bedroom show apartments available to tour.

The development will provide luxury homes exclusively for the over-55s, with a collection of 15 one-bedroom and 22 two-bedroom apartments for sale, alongside communal facilities including a homeowner’s communal lounge, and a hotel-style guest suite.

Marie Buckingham, development director for Burghley Retirement Living, said: “This is an important stage in the completion of Alderman Lodge.

“It’s when the apartments and overall development starts to come to life, giving people the opportunity to see exactly how the luxury interiors are carefully designed and styled, with the over 55s in mind.”

The development is being built on the site of the former Elm Royd care home which closed in 2017 and was subsequently demolished.
