The closed Churchfield Care Centre in Rainworth, Nottinghamshire, has been sold.
Situated in a predominantly residential area in the village, the former care centre occupies a 1990s purpose-built nursing home and a converted property on the same 1.27-acre site. Together, they provide 56 beds, of which 22 have en-suite facilities.
Following a sales process with Sam Fazackerley at Christie & Co, the home has been purchased by Cygnet Health Care, an independent provider of social care services for young people and adults with additional needs, with 150 services across the UK. The company plans to reopen the centre as a complex mental health facility in the next 12 months.
Sam Fazackerley, business agent at Christie & Co, said: “I’m delighted to announce the successful sale of Churchfield to Cygnet Health Care. The opportunity produced a lot of interest and subsequently multiple offers from specialist care operators who were looking to redevelop the site.
“I look forward to the site being reopened to provide much-needed housing, care, and support for people recovering from complex mental health needs.
“We continue to receive high levels of interest for closed care homes across the country from a variety of care operators who want to either repopen the sites or redevelop into supported living, children’s homes, or specialist care services.”
