Boutique Care Homes has announced the acquisition of a care home site in Burgess Hill, West Sussex.

The 68-bed scheme by Frontier Estates will be the operator’s fourth care home.

Managing director and head of the Boutique Care Homes family, Ameet Kotecha, said: “I’m very excited to take our latest home forward to opening in the next two years. This is a key phase in our business growth. Burgess Hill represents a high quality, sustainable location to develop a state-of-the-art care home fit to provide the outstanding quality of care Boutique is known for.”

Construction of the home, which will create many new jobs for the local community, will begin in 2023.

Carl Roberts, associate sales and marketing director, said: “With our fourth home soon to begin construction we are excited to be able to bring the Boutique Care Home’s award-winning care to Burgess Hill. Not only will this home be a beacon of what excellent care looks like, it will also be a valuable asset to the wider community. We look forward to working closely with our colleagues across the health and social care in the area to champion projects, and supporting wider community groups, schools and local businesses.”

With two operational homes in Shepperton, Surrey and Newmarket, Suffolk, Boutique Care Homes will also be opening their third Home, Chartwell House in Broadstairs, Kent in January.
