A substantial former care facility with planning permission to extend the existing structure and create a 54-bedroom residential care home has been purchased by a corporate buyer.
Occupying a convenient and accessible position within Greater Manchester, Fourways is a detached two-storey building offering spacious and versatile accommodation.
The highly visible property is just off the A577 within a well-populated residential area and close to the nearby motorways, providing excellent transport links across the region.
The vendor listed the property for sale as she wished to pursue other business interests and Redwoods Dowling Kerr was instructed to find a buyer.
Once on the market, the premises attracted substantial interest, receiving six viewings and two offers. The property was sold to a corporate buyer with extensive experience in healthcare and a background in the sector stretching back many years.
The buyer was delighted with the acquisition and commented on his plans to renovate the premises to create supported living accommodation.
“Redwoods were professional and proactive in their dealings with us throughout what was sometimes a testing process. Nick handled it with consummate professionalism throughout.”
“I would not hesitate to use Redwoods as an organisation and Nick as an individual in any future acquisitions.”
The vendor was extremely satisfied with the service provided by Redwoods Dowling Kerr and relieved to get the property sold to the right buyer.
He said: “We switched agents to Redwoods Dowling Kerr in the hope that we would eventually find a buyer for our derelict former care home and this was the best decision we made.
“An offer was soon accepted, and although the sale hit a few setbacks, Nick was always at the forefront of communication helping to speed things along. Thank you very much for your help.”
“Redwoods Dowling Kerr got us an excellent offer in a difficult market and the level of service provided by them has been fantastic.”
Lead Negotiator Nick Shepherd said: “I am very pleased to get the sale across the line. At times it proved to be very testing but my relationship with both the vendor and the buyer allowed me to overcome obstacles and keep focussed on bringing the transaction to a safe conclusion.
“I wish both parties all the best for the future.”
