Scheme’s neighbours incude Channel 4 HQ and Home Office

Mae has completed a retirement development of 39 homes near the Home Office in central London.

The scheme, Chimes, consists of two six-storey green-glazed blocks running parallel to Horseferry Road with a 14m wide planted courtyard between them.

It has been designed for Pegasus to HAPPI principles and allows residents to live as independently as they want but with the flexibility for live-in care. They also have access to shared amenities including the garden, a lounge and a dining room.
