A purpose-redesigned care home investment with planning consent and a 30‑year letting to an established care operator. The scheme benefits from RPI rent reviews every five years (uncapped), off‑street parking, a private garden and a very large plot in the Ecclesfield/Firth Park area with good road links to Meadowhall and the M1. Practical completion is expected in October 2025.
The tenant, Bespoke Care & Support Limited, has an operating history and reported profits in the most recent accounts, providing an income-producing asset profile from day one. Planning consent (Ref: 23/01850/FUL) covers a single‑storey C2 care home with six residential apartments, communal lounge, staff facilities and ancillary amenity space — designed for specialist long‑dated care provision.
Buyers should note a material financing constraint: the lease term is 30 years, which many mortgage lenders regard as short for freehold investments and may result in refusal of lending or higher finance costs. Crime levels in the local area are recorded as high; purchasers may wish to consider security measures or insurance implications. The site is in an urban location with limited long-range views and a modest rear yard/garden relative to the overall plot size.
This opportunity suits investors seeking a specialist healthcare income with index-linked reviews and a defined exit profile. The combination of planning consent, an operating covenant and near-term practical completion gives clarity on income and use, but purchasers should confirm finance availability and factor local security and post‑completion maintenance into acquisition budgets.
