Impressive Grade-II former care home property in Plymouth, for sale for £975k
Specialist business property adviser, Christie & Co, has been instructed to sell the former Retreat Care Home in Plymouth, Devon.
Business. Built around You.
This property, which formerly traded as a care home registered for up to 20 residents, ceased trading in October 2025. It comprises an impressive 21-bedroom Grade II-listed building, believed to have been built as a Dower House in the mid-1700s. It is situated on the quiet Belle Vue Road, in the Hooe area of Plymouth, with good road access and an open outlook.
Externally, it has attractive, well-established gardens, car parking for several vehicles, and a former stable block that could be converted into residential dwellings with the right permissions.
Simon Harvey, Senior Director - Care at Christie & Co, who is handling the sale, comments, “The Retreat is an attractive proposition thanks to its generous size, flexible layout, and excellent location. It offers strong potential for a range of uses, from care-related services such as specialist or independent living to alternative sectors or redevelopment opportunities, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
“This is a rare opportunity to acquire a building of real character and versatility. Having operated as a care home for many years before closing last year, it is now available with immediate vacant possession and is well‑placed for a variety of future uses, subject to appropriate consents.”
The former Retreat Care Home is on the market with an asking price of £975,000.
