Sale of London care home supports delivery of new care campus in Redbridge

The sale of Vi & John Rubens House in Gants Hill, Ilford, has completed for £9.1m, securing the property’s continued operation as a care home.

The transaction will see Bondcare take ownership of the substantial care facility on Clarence Avenue, close to Gants Hill station in the London Borough of Redbridge. The sale was handled by Savills and joint agents Strettons on behalf of Jewish Care. 

Occupying a site of approximately 1.07 acres, the property comprises a series of interconnected buildings arranged across ground, first, second and third-floor levels. Together, the buildings provide approximately 53,674 sq ft of accommodation.

The sale has also helped fund the development of the new Sugar & Ronson Care Campus on Woodford Bridge Road in Redbridge. The new campus is being delivered as a replacement care and social facility.

Alex Soskin, director in the London Development Land team at Savills, says: “The completion of this sale supports the continued provision of care services in Redbridge and enables investment in a significant new care and social facility for the local community. Securing the future of Vi & John Rubens House as a care home, while also helping to fund the delivery of the new Sugar & Ronson Care Campus is a fantastic outcome and a transaction we are very pleased to have worked on.”
