Former Nursing Home Set for Student Accommodation Makeover
A long-defunct nursing home in Middleton, located directly across from Hopwood Hall College, is poised for a major transformation. The Briarmede Care Home, which has been closed for several years, may soon be repurposed as student accommodation, catering to the growing needs of students in the area.
The proposal, put forth by The Al-Sadiq Academy, envisions the construction of 11 en-suite bedrooms and two studio flats on the upper floors of the existing building. The ground floor would be converted into a vibrant common area, featuring a range of amenities designed to support student life.
The common area would boast a dining hall and games room, providing a social hub for students to relax and unwind. Additionally, the space would include study areas, kitchens, computer rooms, changing facilities, and a library, ensuring that students have access to the resources they need to succeed academically.
The redevelopment of the Briarmede Care Home would not only breathe new life into a dormant building but also address the growing demand for student accommodation in the area. With Hopwood Hall College located just across the street, the new housing would offer students a convenient and comfortable place to live, study, and thrive.
Proposals such as these are usually expected to undergo further review and approval before construction can begin. If given the green light, the project would mark a significant investment in the local community, providing a much-needed boost to the area's infrastructure and supporting the academic pursuits of students at Hopwood Hall College.
As the plans move forward, residents and students alike will be eager to see the transformation of the Briarmede Care Home into a vibrant and supportive student community.
