Affordable Later Living

Later living is a distinct typology in development, designed to meet the changing needs of its residents.

Later Living

Replacing an obsolete council asset, Populo Living delivered the 75 home affordable later-living scheme, complete with an on-site health centre.

Designed by award-winning architects MAE to HAPPI Principles, the 55 x 1-bed and 20 x 2-bedroom apartments were designed to offer under-occupying social tenants in unsuitable housing to downsize and enjoy the benefits of living in a tailor-made community. This Total Place style approach was designed to reduce pressures on other council services, such as Temporary Accommodation and Adult Services, while giving residents a far better outcome for their later life expectations.
