MAIN STREET, MERTON, BICESTER, OXFORDSHIRE OX25 2NF CUSHMAN & WAKEFIELD | 3 EXISTING ASSET
The Manor Care Home was originally a residential Manor House said to be built in the latter part of the 16th Century, originally being “L” shaped. The Home was remodelled and extended in the late 18th/early 19th century, with the newer element constructed in the 1980’s along with a separate bungalow to provide high quality nursing home accommodation over two storeys (plus attic). The original element, comprising the front elevation, is Grade II listed under the “Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 as amended” with the large purpose built extension and separate bungalow to the rear providing the majority of the care home accommodation. The bungalow accommodates additional day space, a salon and a cinema. The care home currently benefits from 76 bedrooms arranged over ground and first floor, 20 of which offer full en-suite. Staff accommodation, offices and training rooms are located on the second floor with storage and ancillary facilities located within the basement. Listed Element The property is served by three lifts, two of which service the Ground and First floors only, the other serves both the Second floor and Basement. The property is connected to mains electricity, telecom, utilities and water & drainage. Gas is tanked with a diesel backup generator located within an outbuilding. The building is partially serviced by air conditioning. A tarmac surface car park is provided at the rear of the bungalow and a further area to the side of the main building.
