Care home owners Sunjay Rai and Ash Sharma have purchased Sunnyhill Residential Care Home in Eastbourne, East Sussex. The vendor was Raj Madlani of Amba Care Homes Group.

Sunnyhill is a three-storey, 20-bedroom dementia care home with a Good Care Quality Commission rating.

Madlani said: “I am delighted to share the news that I have successfully sold Sunnyhill to Sunjay and Ash, who are highly accomplished in the local care home industry, with a remarkable track record of success. I have immense confidence in their ability to continue operating the home while upholding its strong reputation, which I have diligently nurtured over my 20-year ownership.”

Rai and Sharma stated: “We are very excited about the purchase of Sunnyhill which we always thought would be a great fit with our existing family of care homes, Rivendale Lodge in Eastbourne and Nova House in Seaford, all of which have   reports and strong reputations.”

Business property advisor Christie & Co facilitated the sale.

John Harrison, director, healthcare at Christie & Co, said: “Having also sold two other care homes for Raj, we are delighted to have completed the sale of Sunnyhill for him. I have known Sunjay and Ash for a number of years and, given their success in the sector, I was sure they would be an ideal fit for the home, and will continue the strong reputation that has been established by Raj.”

Sunnyhill Residential Care Home was sold for an undisclosed price.
