Lexden Gardens (Former Essex County Hospital)
Published 9 April 2024
We are well underway on site at Lexden Gardens (the former Essex County Hospital), progressing with Phase 1 of this redevelopment to the redundant hospital site. The first phase will bring 63 new quality homes to the development.
In order to achieve this, we will be:
- Conducting a sympathetic refurbishment and conversion to the Grade II listed main hospital block, with some key restoration work to features (such as the ornate period staircase within the building).
- Retaining the façade of the existing street facing block whilst building new apartments on this portion of the site.
- Building a new residential block to the front right-hand side of the site.
- Undertaking significant infrastructure and landscaping works.
This project is due to complete in 2026…so we look forward to bringing plenty more updates soon as we progress ahead!
