A CHEPSTOW care home has been sold to first-time buyers in the care industry.

Specialist business property advisers Christie & Co sold Castle Court Residential Home on Welsh Street to first time entrants to the care market.

Castle Court is an impressive period property with accommodation over four floors.

It was registered to accommodate 25 elderly clients in 24 bedrooms of which 19 have their own en suite facilities. 

The home had been run by the outgoing directors since the mid 1980s and the new owners, Mr and Mrs Srishangaran, are first-time entrants to the sector from the South East.

They will seek to build on the reputation that the home has achieved and will maintain its position as one of the most respected and well regarded homes in the area.

Simon Harvey, director of Christie & Co’s south west and south Wales healthcare team, handled the sale and wished the new owners well.

He said: “We are delighted to have assisted the directors of EVH Limited in retiring from the care sector and wish the new directors well for the future.”
